Under the new system, fines for speeding range from Rs5,000 for motorcycles to Rs20,000 for heavy vehicles.

Authorities confirmed that the penalty system will also incorporate a demerit points mechanism, which can directly impact a driver’s record and license validity.
This measure is designed to ensure consistent accountability and discourage repeat offenses.
Officials stressed that the revised fines are intended to promote responsible driving rather than generate revenue.
They expressed hope that the strict enforcement would lead to fewer accidents and more orderly traffic conditions across Sindh.
The provincial government believes the new penalty system will serve as an effective deterrent, instilling discipline among drivers and ensuring safer roads for all citizens.
