Government officials said the new traffic laws were implemented to protect lives and reduce the number of road accidents caused by reckless behavior. Authorities hope that stricter enforcement will encourage citizens to follow road safety regulations.

Sindh’s new traffic fine system marks a major shift in road regulation enforcement. By raising penalties up to Rs100,000, the government is sending a clear message that traffic indiscipline will no longer be tolerated. Experts believe that such heavy fines, if implemented strictly, could significantly reduce accidents, though they warn that fair enforcement will be crucial to the law’s success.
