In a significant crackdown on traffic violations, Lahore's City Traffic Police issued fines to over 10,000 motorcyclists in just three days, with 10,982 fines for helmet violations and 5,389 for one-way violations. The operation also led to the impounding of 1,536 motorcycles and 753 vehicles, highlighting the authorities' commitment to improving road safety. Athar Waheed, a senior officer, emphasized that "preventing road accidents remains the top priority" and directed officers to maintain strict enforcement against illegal parking and encroachments to ensure smooth traffic flow in the city (ProPakistani, February 24, 2026). Meanwhile, in Islamabad, the district administration has set a firm deadline of February 28 for motorcycle owners to install mandatory M-Tags as part of a security enhancement initiative. From March 1, motorcycles without M-Tags will be impounded, with officials stating that over 2,000 motorcycles have already received tags during this campaign (TechJuice, February 24, 2026; Tribune Latest, February 24, 2026).
