Traffic Management First: Chennai Police Prioritize Smooth Flow Over Fines
Only senior officials can issue fines as police shift focus to controlling congestion
In instructions issued to traffic police across the city, additional commissioner of police (Traffic) R Sudhakar said that no more than two police personnel should be posted at a particular spot to apprehend offenders.
Key Points from the Directive:
Authority to Issue Fines: Only officials above the rank of sub-inspector are authorized to issue challans and collect spot fines from motorists.
Primary Focus: Traffic police are advised to concentrate on easing congestion in busy areas, particularly during peak hours, rather than solely focusing on issuing fines.
Implications for Motorists:
While enforcement of traffic regulations continues, this shift aims to create a more efficient and commuter-friendly environment in Chennai.
The Chennai Traffic Police remain committed to ensuring road safety and smooth traffic flow for all residents and visitors.
