Traffic cops use swiping machines to collect fines

Rajamahendravaram: Traffic police are using swiping machines to collect penalties from the respective vehicle riders who were fined for violating traffic rules, as per the directions of Urban Superintendent of Police, B Raja Kumari.

With the cooperation of Traffic Deputy Superintendent of Police YV Ramana Kumar, traffic inspectors A Srinivasa Rao and G Satyanarayana have been collecting the fine amount through swiping machines. Thanks to the move, vehicle riders can now skip a visit to the traffic police station to pay the penalty.
