Bhubaneswar: A special drive has been launched by the traffic police in Odisha capital against driving of vehicles on the wrong side of the road. Vehicles moving on wrong side of the road are being seized by the traffic police.

According to sources, the personnel of both the traffic police stations have launched checking at different places of Bhubaneswar and seized a large number of vehicles.

The drive was launched as drivers, particularly bikers, are often found flouting the traffic norms and driving on the wrong side of the road. As part of the drive, instead of collecting fines, the cops are seizing the vehicles. The owners will have to release their vehicles by paying fines in court.

The special enforcement drive has been launched at different locations in the state capital to ensure strict adherence to traffic rules by the vehicle drivers.

The Commissionerate Police had earlier appealed to the vehicle drivers to strictly follow the traffic regulations to prevent penalties and court cases. The enforcement drive on various norms would continue in the city.
