A police officer directs traffic in Kozhikode city on Tuesday.
In a major step towards enhancing traffic management and passenger safety, the Kozhikode city traffic enforcement unit has launched a comprehensive online data collection drive covering all private buses, autorickshaws, and taxi cars operating within the city limits.
The initiative aims to create a centralised database of public transport vehicles and their crew members using a specially designed Google Form. According to senior traffic police officials, the step will help the police establish direct communication with vehicle owners and crew members during emergencies, disseminate traffic safety awareness and alerts, and curb traffic violations effectively.
Vehicle owners are required to submit complete details including the registration number, permit information, RC owner’s name, and contact details. In addition, personal credentials, driver’s licence numbers, conductor’s details, and identity documents of all crew members must be uploaded through the form.
The Google Form links will be available through bus operators’ associations, trade unions, and the official social media handles of the Kozhikode City police. All vehicle owners and operators have been directed to complete and submit the forms on or before November 25.
