Bhubaneswar: To streamline the process to obtaining vehicle documents, including driving licence, the Transport Department has decided to install Automated Driver Testing Tracks (ADTT) in 18 districts of Odisha.
The driving test is currently being conducted manually.
Transport Commissioner, Sanjeeb Panda, said that the state-of-the-art technology setup, including video analytics technology and a vast array of cameras and sensors, will make it convenient for the applicants as well as the authorities to complete the formalities faster.
He further said the number of casualties in road mishaps has come down by at least 17 % due to strict enforcement of traffic rules between September and December. “Steps are being taken to create awareness and such enforcement drives will continue,” he added.
