What’s inside:
This article talks about a new campaign in Munger to stop rash driving and improve road safety.
Munger is taking steps to make the roads safer by cracking down on rash driving. The transport department has started a strict campaign to control dangerous driving behavior in the district. This initiative began after an order from the Departmental Secretary, aiming to reduce the number of road accidents.
As part of this campaign, if bike riders are caught driving rashly for the first time, their driving licenses will be suspended for three months. If they repeat the offense, their licenses can be permanently canceled. So, it’s really important for everyone to drive safely and follow the rules.
Since the campaign started on November 25, 27 bike riders have already lost their licenses. The District Transport Officer suspended 17 licenses, while the Motor Vehicle Inspector took action on 10 licenses. The focus is not just on bikers; three drivers of four-wheelers have also faced license cancellation for repeat offenses.
If a driver flees the scene after rash driving, the team will take a photo of the bike’s number plate. They will then send a notice to the bike owner to take action against them. The transport officials have made it clear that this campaign will continue to be enforced strictly.
This campaign is not just about punishment; it’s about making our roads safer for everyone. The transport department has formed eight teams to monitor and conduct investigations across the district, ensuring that rules are followed and safety is prioritized.
