Jaipur. A lane system is being implemented on Delhi Road, from Chandwaji to Shahjahanpur, a distance of 125 kilometres, to curb the rising number of road accidents. This pilot project will commence strictly from 6 September.

Under the leadership of the Jaipur Rural and Kotputli-Bahadur police superintendents, an awareness campaign has been conducted for the past 10 days. Hotel, dhabas (roadside restaurants), and highway rest stops were visited to educate drivers about lane driving. During this campaign, more than 100 illegal cuts were closed.

Monitoring System

• Police teams will record videos of vehicles on the highway.
• Videos will be uploaded to a group.

Action for Violations

• A fine of ₹2000 will be imposed for violating the lane system.
• Additional fines will be levied for other violations of the Motor Vehicles Act.
• Vehicles will be impounded if documents are not available.
