Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) has intensified enforcement and public awareness activities against one-wheeling, with citizens also joining the campaign to discourage the dangerous practice and protect lives on the capital\u2019s roads.
\nAn ITP official told APP on Monday that the campaign was being carried out on the directions of Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Islamabad Kainat Azhar Khan, who ordered strict and indiscriminate action against one-wheelers under a zero-tolerance policy.
\nThe CTO Kainat said one-wheeling was a dangerous traffic violation that could pose a serious threat not only to riders but also to other road users.
\nShe said enforcement alone was not enough and directed traffic officers to further strengthen awareness activities to educate young motorcyclists about the potentially serious consequences of one-wheeling.
\nKainat urged parents to closely monitor their children\u2019s activities and educate them about safe motorcycle riding and the importance of obeying traffic laws.
\nShe particularly appealed to young people to stay away from one-wheeling and other forms of dangerous riding, saying such practices were a major cause of road accidents and could put precious human lives at risk.
\nThe CTO Kainat said citizens were also actively participating alongside traffic police in the awareness campaign, reflecting growing public support for efforts to discourage dangerous riding.
\nShe called upon citizens to cooperate with ITP in preventing one-wheeling and timely report dangerous driving wherever observed.
\nKainat said the objective of action against one-wheelers was not merely enforcement of the law but also the protection of precious human lives.
\nShe said motorists and motorcyclists should travel in the designated direction and strictly follow traffic rules, as road discipline was essential for safe and smooth traffic flow.
\nThe CTO said ITP would continue indiscriminate action against dangerous driving and other traffic violations while simultaneously expanding awareness efforts to ensure safer travel for citizens across Islamabad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
