On every one of my countless visits to Lahore it looks like the quantity of automobiles keeps expanding and the traffic seems to be getting more agonizing. But the state of affairs has somewhat altered these past few times and amazingly car owners appear to be notably ordered. On my trip returning home I noticed a feature in a magazine on the efforts of the Punjab government and primarily the police unit to mend the traffic predicament in Lahore and their plan to train the disorderly car owners on the hectic city avenues. Here are certain explanations as to why this has been a triumphant application until now.

Control commences with the law agencies and the Lahore Traffic Police appear to be clamping down in terms of allowing traffic culprits off without some kind of fine. Gross violations like stopping on a zebra crossing or speaking on the cell phone while traveling were till the recent past regarded minor violations by citizens until the police, in attendance at every important intersection, began clamping down. These violations are almost never noticeable nowadays and those citizens flouting the law have an noticeable look of worry, as if they were on the verge of being apprehended at any minute.

Another striking change is the confident approach exhibited by the Lahore Traffic Police. There is increasing self-esteem in believing what they do genuinely, witnessing the useful result of their hard work and getting much praise for their efforts in both publications and the electronic media. Smartly dressed in white and grey outfits, the Lahore police force seems to be playing a central part in mitigating the jumble produced by stressed automobile drivers.

Lahore appears to be substantially more advanced in terms of employing female police officers and effectively utilizing them on the streets, a spectacle I have almost never seen in any other main city in the country. An obsolete perception of valiance more than often impelled male traffic police to exempt the most major wrongs by female drivers in Lahore, a somewhat sore issue for the women in Lahore. With a prominent number of women on the Lahore police force, women are now dealing with women, and all the smooth talking in the world are powerless against the female Lahore officer’s independence.

Broadening the earlier instance, the Lahore Traffic Police are applying laws to all automobile drivers independent of the type of vehicle or the car owner. Feudal and regular salaried individuals are equally responsible and Lahore’s police force has performed a meritorious job of administering this regulation, bringing parity to at least one element of our lives here in Pakistan. I am certain unjustified clout must be doing well in a considerable number of conditions but the reality remains that an effort was made to reproach the car owner to the upper most degree achievable by the policeman.

These unbelievable labors have also inspired the residents of Lahore into contributing. Individuals are giving added attention to their civil duties on the avenues and acting in a somewhat cultivated manner. Advanced gadgets to assist Lahore’s Traffic Police would be an extra improvement and could be something to look at for the impending era. Up till then I presume other areas can learn a lesson from Lahore and commence clamping down on us harried automobile owners.

A large variety of used cars for sale in Lahore has ended in more traffic on city roads and intolerable pollution.
