    Strict Traffic laws must be implemented by Police to save accidents and smooth flow of traffic. It is a income for the Government and also helps to pay compensation for the victims by Insurance companies. Congratulations for the good work by Policemen.

    If any violation in Traffic rules , Havey fine + Cars and two wheelers, keep the vehicle in the Police station for minimum 2 days and for Buses and trucks keep inside for minimum one week. Everything will come to normal in few days. I think that's the best punishment.

    Fine amount on 800 vehicles (1.25000/800= 156 rs) is very small , that is why people do not care about offence and repeat... Required Heavy fines to stop repeated offence ....

    What about the private city buses. What have the police done to restrict their hazardous driving both witin an outside city limits. It's a good move by the police to avoid any untoward incident from happening by terrorist groups. But at the same time all vehicle movements need to dealt equally.
    Jai Hind.

    Good Work by the Police..
    But Tipper / heavy vehicle checking should be the FIRST priority.
    So that number of accidents can reduce and also can save lives of two Wheelers, Cars and Pedestrians...

    But you can never ever do anything about the erring buses and autos. Just look at what they have again done with the plastic dividers near jyothi. Look at where they stop to pick passengers, look at how they react when anyone objects.

    What about fines for buses and trucks with single headlight ani no break lights?? Most accident with at night time is because of theses kind of vehicles... fine them not less than 5000, and dont allow them to move the vehicle without fixing the lights..

    I still believe, police should take data from RTO and seize all vehicles which don't have FC and insurance. Why wait them at road? Govt has data, address..
