Toll Tax: This initiative of police to put cameras on the highway is an important step to curb criminals and keep an eye on those who violate traffic rules. By installing cameras on Jaipur and Jaisalmer highways, officials will get an opportunity to monitor vehicles passing through toll plazas from the Abhay Command Center located in Bikaner. This will not only keep a close watch on criminals, but will also help in getting traffic rules followed. This step can also prove to be effective in strengthening the security system and reducing accidents.

This initiative

This initiative, when implemented on all state and national highways of Bikaner range, will not only increase security on the highway, but will also reduce road accidents. Installing cameras will make it easier for the police to monitor over-speeding and overloaded vehicles, so that timely action can be taken against them. However, due to the limited number of interceptor vehicles and the length of the highway, it was challenging to check vehicles, but now this camera system will solve this problem. This will not only reduce accidents, but will also keep a close watch on illegal activities.

A state-of-the-art surveillance

A state-of-the-art surveillance system will be developed by installing high quality CCTV cameras on the highway and connecting them to the Abhay Command and Police Control Center. This system will be able to count the speed and time of vehicles. For example, based on the fixed distance and speed limit of the vehicle from one toll to another, it will be known how much time the vehicle should take to reach that place. If a vehicle reaches before the stipulated time, it will be marked for action under over speed.

Apart from this, this camera system will also help in identifying overloaded vehicles and strict vigil can also be kept on drug smugglers on the highway. This step will not only improve traffic safety, but will also make effective action against criminals and smugglers possible.

The figure of 195 people losing

The figure of 195 people losing their lives in 295 road accidents in the Bikaner range in the last two months is a matter of concern, especially when the death toll has increased by 17 percent. Although the number of injured has decreased, the increase in deaths is a matter of serious concern in terms of road safety.

The police administration is going to resort to CCTV cameras and toll nakas on the highway to solve this problem. With the help of cameras, action will be taken against over-speeding vehicles based on speed and distance, which will reduce accidents. This step has already been started in Bikaner district, and in the coming time, Jaipur and Jaisalmer highways will also be brought under the surveillance of cameras. This step will not only control over speeding, but will also help in ensuring safety, and will contribute to preventing accidents.
