The Jammu and Kashmir Transport department has taken stringent action by suspending route permits and registration certificates of over 500 vehicles in Jammu and Samba districts for a period of three months, citing violations of the Motor Vehicles Act.
This decisive move comes after the widespread implementation of the Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) at all 44 junctions in Jammu since June 10. The ITMS uses Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to identify and record violations such as red light infractions, helmet-less driving, triple riding, non-usage of seat belts, mobile phone usage while driving, and improper parking.
The Regional Transport Office confirmed that 384 vehicles in Jammu city alone have had their route permits and registration certificates suspended following recommendations from the Traffic Police department. Additionally, a further 130 commercial vehicles in Samba district have faced similar suspensions due to repeated traffic infractions. Authorities emphasize that with the ITMS in place, all vehicles are under constant CCTV surveillance, and e-challans are supported by high-definition camera evidence. Motorists are urged to adhere strictly to traffic rules to avoid penalties and ensure road safety.
