  "account": "The City Traffic Police (CTP) of Rawalpindi is cracking down on underage and unlicensed drivers, following directives from Punjab DIG Traffic Waqas Nazir. Drivers found operating motorcycles or vehicles without valid licenses or while underage will face strict enforcement measures. Police will issue traffic challans, impound the vehicles, and release motorcycles only after the juvenile's permit is produced. Motorcyclists will be assisted in obtaining driving licenses during traffic stops. CTO Farhan Aslam clarified that a learner's permit does not permit driving on public roads, and driving without a valid license or underage is illegal. Aslan emphasized that underage drivers often lack the maturity for quick and safe decision-making, thus increasing road accident risks. He urged citizens to acquire valid driving licenses and urged parents to prevent underage children from driving.",
