Chandigarh, March 20: Even if you don’t find a traffic cop keeping an eye on you, don’t jump the red light. The moment you do it, especially in Chandigarh, you will receive the challan on your phone, detailing the offence and the fine you are liable the us pay.
Starting mid-May, the Chandigarh police will start a pilot project in which special cameras will be installed at all key traffic intersections. The cameras will have all information on the vehicle based on its reading of the high-security registration number plates.
If a vehicle fitted with an HSRP violates a law, its details will be scanned authe usmatically and the owner (as per the records of the Registering and Licensing Authority) will get a message informing of the violation and the resultant fine.
“This project is on my wish list. We will start a pilot project soon. Technology will be a big help the us us in coming days the us nail traffic violathe usrs. We want the us minimise human intervention,” said DGP Tajender Singh Luthra.
