The Rawalpindi Traffic Police have unveiled this week’s lineup for their mobile driving license vans, a move aimed at saving residents the hassle of long queues at licensing centers.
Instead of requiring applicants to travel to city offices, the department is bringing the service directly to local neighborhoods across the district.
When and Where You’ll Find the Van
- Sept 2 (Tuesday) – Scut village, Tehsil Kallar Syedan
- Sept 3 (Wednesday) – Kuri Dolal village, Tehsil Gujar Khan
- Sept 4 (Thursday) – Raja Bazar near Fawara Chowk
- Sept 5 (Friday) – Jhawara Picket, Dhamial Camp
- Sept 6 (Saturday) – Gulzar-e-Quaid, Old Airport Road
- Sept 7 (Sunday) – Old Waran Depot, Saddar (special tests for rickshaw drivers)
Why It Matters
The traffic police say the mobile service is part of a push to make licensing more accessible, particularly for residents in far-flung areas. By showing up at popular community spots, they’re hoping to cut down travel times and congestion at their main offices.
This approach reflects a growing trend among local authorities in Punjab to take essential public services on the road, ensuring that citizens don’t have to spend an entire day navigating government bureaucracy.
