Karachi turns to technology to fix traffic woes as commuters protest heavy fines

KARACHI: Karachi’s traffic police have begun rolling out a citywide “faceless” electronic ticketing system, replacing traditional roadside fines with automated citations issued through surveillance cameras, a major shift in a city long plagued by chronic congestion, weak enforcement and crumbling roads. The new system, launched on Oct. 27 with 1,076 surveillance cameras, is part of the larger “Karachi Safe City” program.
