These vehicles won't be allowed anymore on 2 Gurgaon highway stretches
The Gurgaon traffic police Wednesday evening announced restrictions on the movement of slow-moving vehicles on two major highways, effective immediately, to enhance road safety in high-speed corridors. Two-wheelers, including motorcycles and scooters, three-wheelers, including e-rickshaws and E-carts, non-motorised vehicles, agricultural tractors, multi-axle hydraulic trailers, and quadricycles are prohibited from using the main lanes of the Delhi-Jaipur Highway or National Highway-48 stretch from the Sirhaul border to Kherki Daula, as well as the Dwarka Expressway from Kherki Daula to the Delhi border. Instead, drivers will have to use the designated service lanes to avoid potential accidents. To enforce compliance, the Gurgaon traffic police have warned that offenders will face action under the Motor Vehicles Act. They have also conducted awareness interactions at key junctions along these routes to educate the public. The development comes close on the heels of at least two accidents on NH-48 this month. On June 21, Delhi Police Head Constable Ashok Kumar, 39, was killed in an accident after the state transport bus he was travelling on overturned. The bus was on its way to Jaipur when the accident took place. According to Birender Singh, Sub-Inspector, Bilaspur Police Station, the bus was ferrying several passengers when the driver applied brakes, and swerved to avoid a WagonR near Panchgaon Chowk. Kumar hailed from Molawas village in Rajasthan's Alwar district. Earlier this month, a 24-year-old from Rajasthan lost his life in an accident on the same national highway. Sumit Meena and his four friends, all from Rajasthan, were travelling from Alwar to Delhi in a Hyundai i20 on June 11 when their vehicle met with an accident near Mannat Hotel at Sidhravali around 3.30 am. As per a complaint filed by Kamal Singh Meena, Sumit's father, at the Bilaspur Police Station, the vehicle was being driven by Sumit's friend when it collided with an unidentified large vehicle. Kamal, in his complaint, alleged that the friend was driving negligently.
