Chandigarh Traffic Police issues e-mail ID for challans due to giving pass to ambulances and fire brigades


People have usually been apprehensive about getting challaned for giving way to fire brigades and ambulances at red lights.


In order to avoid confusion regarding the same, Chandigarh Traffic Police has issued an email address : police-command@chd.gov.in where people can provide information about their challan.


During emergencies, drivers and motorists tend to cross the zebra crossings to make way for ambulances and fire brigades. Challans have been issued to them during the past couple of months and hence, an action has been taken.


The SSP clarified that challans based on CCTV cameras installed under the Smart City project would capture such violations automatically once the project goes live; however, there was a provision for authentication of each and every violation captured. “We will keep it in mind before issuing a challan whether a vehicle has given way to an ambulance or any other emergency vehicle,” she added, back in November 2021.


As per the current rules, under Section 194E of the MV Act, 1988, (Amended in 2019), whoever while driving a motor vehicle fails to draw to the side of the road on the approach of a fire service vehicle or an ambulance or any other emergency vehicle, shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to six months or with a fine of Rs10,000 or both.
