Hyderabad traffic police booked 4,252 motorists who were caught using mobile phones while driving during a special enforcement drive conducted between November 8 and November 14. Of those booked, 3,548 were two-wheeler riders, 42 - three-wheeler drivers, and 662 - four-wheeler drivers, according to a press note issued on Saturday.
The drive was conducted as part of efforts to improve road safety, promote disciplined driving and prevent accidents caused by distracted driving. The traffic police said using a mobile phone while driving causes cognitive, visual and manual distraction, affecting a driver’s attention, reaction time and judgement, and increasing the risk of collisions.
The police said they were following a zero-tolerance policy towards mobile phone use while driving and would continue to conduct special enforcement drives regularly.
