Lahore: Any plans of violating traffic rules in the provincial capital of Pakistan’s Punjab province better be put on hold as the more heavy-footed motorist is likely to receive an e-ticket in the mail. The Camera Integrated Fining system has started functioning in the city on a trial basis and warning tickets have been sent to the homes of traffic violators through courier.
More than 1,000 e-tickets have been sent to vehicle users who committed violations on Mall Road. The CIF, which is part of the Rs120 million Safe City Project (SCP) of the Punjab government, will start full functionality after amendments are made to the Motor Vehicle Ordinance 1965. Cameras installed on poles are ready to snap a picture of a violating vehicle’s number plate, through an automated process.
