Bhiwandi Traffic Police have conducted a crackdown on 158 vehicles over three days, imposing a total fine of ₹89,500, according to sources. The enforcement drive focused on motorists engaging in wrong-side driving and entering no-entry zones, with intensified efforts on major roads and flyovers throughout the city. Seventy-seven offenders who drove on the wrong side faced court proceedings, while another 81 vehicles were penalised for breaching no-entry restrictions.
Wrong-side driving has become a persistent issue on Bhiwandi's busy roads, especially during peak hours, as motorists attempt to sidestep congestion by entering roads from the opposite direction, causing traffic snarls and increasing the risk of collisions. Senior Police Inspector Kishor Kharat led the enforcement drive, emphasizing the need to enhance traffic discipline and streamline vehicular movement across the city.
He warned that ongoing action would continue against violators and that those disregarding traffic regulations would face consequences.
