roads and also helps to monitors the activities of traffic police
officers on duty.This type of technology totally changes the
outlook of traffic system in lahore specially Mall Road, Canal
Road and Ferozpur Road. It also reminds people of their
responsibilities during driver and make their driving skills
disciplined.It also removes irregular flow of traffic and ensures
the lane discipline which totally make traffic flow regular. Now
every person follows the traffic rules and regulations because
he/she aware of the circumstances may faced by them if they
violates the traffic laws.This project makes the traffic system
disciplined. It is hard for me to look for disadvantages of this
system.
II. C ONCLUSION
Handling traffic during peak hours and minimize the number
of road accidents is the priority of mega cities. E-Challan is
the best digital solution so far. Usage of technology in this way
will not only solve this huge problem of traffic but also reduce
the human power. The revenue generated through this system
will be used for maintenance and betterment of traffic manage-
ment system. I think this is totally beneficial investment by the
government to handle the traffic issues smartly. This project
totally digitalizes the traffic management system and open the
gateway for implementing solutions in handling problems of
traffic issues. E-Challan enforces the law against voilaters so
that no one escape from the hands of the law.This project also
introduces mobile application and make people familiar with it
which is the complete evidence of effective use of technology
in improving traffic management system. Nobody can deny its
importance. Almost approximately 10 million+ PKR revenue
has been generated since the launch of this system. It is the
time to start this project in other mega cities of Pakistan to
make sure the law enforcement (implementation of rules and
regulations) throughout the country and make easy for the
concerned authorities to catch the traffic law violators.
