Ggm cops deploy drones to nab lane driving violators

The violators fined included 300 trucks, 100 private buses, and 12 school buses.

The police said they launched a special drive between the now-defunct Sirhaul toll plaza and Kherki Daula toll plaza on in a bid to curb accidents. Lane driving is currently enforced only on the expressway, where commercial vehicles are not allowed on the first two lanes on the right so that fast moving vehicles can move without being hindered.

Currently, only one drone is being used for the exercise - a traffic police team stands on the side of the road while the drone is operational, and based on the footage received, the police team then stops the offending vehicle.

The drone surveillance is being overseen by deputy commissioner of police (traffic) Virender Vij and assistant commissioners of police (traffic).
