Rs 78 crore tech overhaul on cards

Driving track tests are mandatory for anyone seeking a two-wheeler or four-wheeler driving licence. However, the sensor-based driving test tracks at Ahmedabad and other RTOs are in poor condition. This leads to constant friction between applicants and government employees over test results.

Recently, Mirror highlighted these issues. The transport department is now considering installing hi-tech, Al-based driving test tracks at a cost of around Rs 78 crore across all RTOs in the state.

Struggles at the RTO

Getting a new or renewed driving licence at the RTO has become a nightmare for citizens. The outdated, sensor-based test tracks, coupled with inefficient government machinery, make the process a struggle.
