Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Anil Kumar Yadav said, “The campaign has been effective but we have identified some (traffic violation) hotspots where we will continue enforcement of traffic rules.”

He added, “At some places where we have identified wrong-lane driving due to structural issues, we will be communicating with the Noida authority to resolve those issues.”

He said, “A significant point that has emerged during the campaign is that a lot of vehicles, including commercial carriers, were found driving on wrong lanes. Very soon we would begin lodging FIRs in such cases for stricter action against such commuters.”

While advising people about traffic rules he said, “People should follow the traffic norms that are made for their own safety as well as that of others. For example, they can go an extra 100 metres for a U-turn instead of taking shortcuts. This way, you can prevent mishaps and ensure road safety.”
