The Punjab Traffic Police has announced a new step to improve road safety across the province. Under the latest decision, motorcycle riders who are caught without wearing a helmet may face a traffic challan and their motorcycles can also be seized for one day.

Officials say that the main purpose of this action is to reduce road accidents and protect the lives of motorcycle riders. Many serious injuries and deaths happen every year because riders do not wear helmets while driving.
