ISLAMABAD, May 20: As per the directions of IG NHMP Khalid Mahmood Motorway Sector M-3 launched PSVs Management System to overcome the menace of road accidents of Public Service Vehicles at M3. The Motorway Police Sector M-3 launched PSVs Management System on Lahore-Abdul Hakeem Motorway. Better usage of modern and intelligent technology can prevent accidents and loss of precious human and emotional trauma, said a spokesman of NHMP M-3 Sector. The Sector M-3 of Motorway Central -1 Zone initiated a PSVs Management system intending to save precious human lives by using technology to monitor and maintain a database of Public Service Vehicle (PSVs) plying on Motorway M-3. To preserve data of each PSV, including its drives particulars, details of PSVs companies, daily vehicles and drivers’ trips, an Android application was developed for briefing officers of NHMP. With the help of this application, the NHMP field officers were enabled to inspect PSVs, especially tyres and fitness of vehicles, before commencing the journey for the safety of onboard passengers. The system is smart enough to pop up notifications when any discrepancy is observed under inspection PSV. Further, entry of any PSV Company, a specific vehicle and a particular driver having rash driving history can be restricted to ply on Motorway through the same application.
Besides, tracker access to all PSVs is also attained, and drivers’ behaviour is monitored continuously from the control room 24/7. In case of speeding or rash driving, the same PSV is enforced on the Motorway by sending its details to field formation. – PR
