Introducing e-challan
There is reason for habitual traffic offenders to worry, as the Mira-Bhayandar Municipal Corporation (MBMC), together with the Traffic Police, has come up with advanced technology that will enable them to track traffic offenders easily. The MBMC has sketched out an elaborate plan to install cameras at strategic locations, especially traffic signals, across the twin-city. Two cameras have already been installed at the S.K. Stone signal in Mira Road on a 3-month trial basis.
The high definition rotational cameras can zoom in and capture the image of the traffic offender and the registration number plates even from a distance of half a kilometer. The cameras can easily watch vehicles moving in any direction, as it can be rotated by the operators in the nearby police control room. Once the offence is recorded on camera, it will be passed on to the control room mobile unit and the traffic officials can book the drivers.
Addresses of the vehicle owners will be verified with the help of a tracking system from the RTO database once the pictures of the vehicles are transmitted to the control room. “The Traffic Department would then a send a notice to the vehicle registration address and register a case. Moreover, the offender will also be sent a ‘link’, showing the video clip of his offence,” informed Municipal Commissioner Vikram Kumar.
