Strict enforcement of traffic rules: Fatalities down 14%
The New Indian Express Chennai
|April 28, 2025
FATALITIES on Chennai roads have dropped by 14% in 2025, from January 1 to April 25, compared to the same period in 2024, said a press note from the Greater Chennai Traffic Police (GCTP).
While it was 173 in 2024, it has come down to 149 this year.
The police attribute the drop in numbers to stricter enforcement against speeding, drunken driving, and helmetless riding by way of manual checks and using tech like ANPR cameras, 2D speed radars, and vehicle interceptor systems. The police have also enhanced patrolling, awareness drives, and public education campaigns promoting road discipline and the use of protective gear, the press note said.
