Would you like to make a big contribution towards Hyderabad traffic organization & offer helping hand for City Traffic Police? – here is a great opportunity being offered by Hyderabad Traffic Police. Read on…
Just like our traffic Policemen, who are equipped with cameras to capture the vehicles at no-parking zone, helmet-less drivers and rule-breakers, every other citizen can now start clicking the pictures of those who violate traffic regulations. By sending these pictures or videos to the Whatsapp number of Traffic department, some points can be earned. What are these points? – These points will be credited to their bank account in the form of money, after gaining 100 points, one point will make one rupee. A reporting by citizen will be scrutinized by digital team before allocating points to the senders and issuing a challan to rule violator.
As per traffic department, the photo/video sender will get 10 points for capturing wrong route vehicles, 3 points for vehicles running on zebra-crossing or footpath, 3 points for incorrect number plate, 7 points for capturing drivers without seat-belt, 7 points for helmet-less two-wheelers, 3 for having black film to cars, 10 for signal jumping, 10 for rash driving, 10 points for speaking on phone while driving.
A similar scheme which was introduced in Goa earlier is running successfully and a lucky draw winner will be gifted with a two-wheeler every month in the state. Whereas in Hyderabad, 1 point will earn you 1 buck. So, both two wheeler and four wheeler drivers should be extra cautious while cruising on the roads of Hyderabad city.
