December 23, 2025

Chandigarh: Taking a tough stance on road safety, the Chandigarh administration has suspended 648 driving licenses for traffic violations so far in 2025. This figure is more than double the figure from the previous year. According to officials, this increase is the result of strict enforcement and strict action.

Riding without a helmet is the biggest violation

According to traffic police data, riding two-wheelers without a helmet is the biggest reason for license suspensions. Despite repeated awareness campaigns, ignoring helmet rules remains a concern.

Strict action taken against triple riding

Cases of triple riding, i.e., three people riding on one bike, ranked second. Officials say such negligence increases the risk of accidents exponentially, especially in crowded areas.

Strictness will continue to curb accidents

The administration has made it clear that action against habitual rule breakers will continue. The traffic police have appealed to the public to follow the rules so that the roads can be safe for everyone.
