With helmet violations, wrong-side driving, lane indiscipline, and drunk driving continuing to pose major challenges on city roads, Cyberabad Police Commissioner M. Ramesh on Tuesday (June 23, 2026) directed newly trained personnel to step up enforcement and public awareness efforts to improve road safety.

The Commissioner interacted with 150 Greyhounds police personnel who recently completed a week-long special training programme for traffic management duties within the Cyberabad Commissionerate. Mr. Ramesh also reviewed the concepts covered during the training and briefed the personnel on effective traffic management, proper traffic control procedures, and courteous interaction with the public.

The police said the training programme included both indoor and outdoor sessions on traffic management, traffic engineering, and relevant legal provisions. The personnel were also trained in enforcing violations such as riding without helmets, lane indiscipline, wrong-side driving, and drunk driving.

Highlighting the need for strict enforcement, the Commissioner instructed personnel to take legal action against individuals who obstruct police while performing traffic duties. He also stressed the importance of educating motorists about traffic regulations to help prevent road accidents.

Pointing to the heavy traffic volumes in Hyderabad’s IT corridor, he asked the personnel to remain alert while managing traffic in these areas. He also directed them to be prepared for additional challenges during the monsoon season and ensure that traffic movement remains smooth without any inconvenience to commuters.

Emphasising the human cost of road accidents, the Commissioner urged the personnel to actively promote responsible driving habits and provide immediate assistance to members of the public whenever required. He said professional conduct and a service-oriented approach would help strengthen public trust in the police.
