The focus areas of this campaign are elimination of tinted glasses from vehicles, use of non-pattern number plates and curbing practice of over-speeding, driving motorbikes without helmets, silencers as well as one-wheeling.

The decision to launch this campaign was made following the directions from the office of Inspector General of Police which has assigned special task to SSP Traffic Farrukh Rasheed to ensure implementation of traffic laws and gain maximum public cooperation in this regard.

With zeal and zest to ensure implementation on traffic laws, ITP has started renewed efforts for safer road environment in Capital and to involve community in its affairs.

Its teams are visiting educational institutions to create traffic sense and several students have joined ITP as traffic volunteers.

Programs of ITP FM radio channel 92.4 have also the main focus to create awareness about traffic rules among road users and streamlining traffic flow. The SSP Traffic said this awareness drive about traffic rules will help to ensure safe road environment through citizens' cooperation.
