Furthermore, the public service management system used on the M-2 and M-3 motorways would be reproduced on all highways.

The motorway police will adopt a stricter regime to ensure proper law enforcement. “Drones will be depl­o­yed for enforcement, surveillance and mi­­tigating fencing issues,” said the official from the Ministry of Communication.

Moreover, the department will also launch a new black point system whereby motorists will begin accruing demerit points on their driving licenses for various violations.
