Patna, Bihar is witnessing a continuous increase in road accidents. Every day people are dying in road accidents or getting badly injured in the state. In this regard, the Bihar government has now taken a big initiative. The Bihar government has decided that now tractors, trucks and goods carrying vehicles will not run during school timings in the state. A letter has also been issued by the Transport Department regarding this. Along with this, preparations are also underway to send a letter to the DM SP regarding this.

It is said that, during school timings in the morning, school vehicles are more on the roads, so at that time there is a possibility of accidents with tractors and other vehicles. Now in view of these problems, the operation of tractors, trucks and goods carrying vehicles has been banned during school timings.

The Transport Department said that during the review it was found that school children face trouble due to the movement of goods vehicles in the morning and there is a high possibility of accidents. In recent times, the maximum trouble in Patna was seen in the areas from Digha to Nasariganj Danapur to Saguna Mod and the areas along the bypass.
In the Transport Department, all DMs and Transport Officers have also been instructed to complete the work of installing signage before school. Along with this, instructions have also been given to fix the speed limit in the signage installed before school.
