Pink Counters, Free Scooter Training Introduced for Women in Islamabad

Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP), led by Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Kainat Azhar Khan, has introduced Pink Counters and free scooter-riding training for women in the capital.

Pink Counters

Dedicated Pink Counters have been set up at all Police Facilitation Centres and Traffic Headquarters. They are staffed only by female police personnel and handle driving licences and character certificates. Female applicants get priority to reduce waiting times. The CTO said the initiative’s primary objective is to protect women’s privacy, dignity and self-respect.

Free Scooter Training

Women can receive free scooter-riding training at the Uraan Driving School, with practical training so they can travel independently. The first phase ran from November 1 to 15, 2026. Due to strong demand, the second phase has been extended to November 16 to 30, 2026.

Same-Day Licences for Students

The 42-day waiting period after a learner’s permit is waived, so eligible college and university students can get a motorcycle licence on the same day. The facility is available at ITP Headquarters from November 1 to 30, 2026.

Home Delivery of Licences

Driving licences are delivered by courier company TCS. Residents of Islamabad receive them within one day, and applicants in other cities within two days.
