A REPORTER
SHILLONG: The police today informed that it has been observed that many vehicles, especially commercial vehicles are parked with boulder stones placed behind the car tyres.
Later, such stones are not removed, which invariably becomes vulnerable and hazardous to other road users/pedestrians leading to accidents. Besides, it also causes obstruction to the free flow of vehicular traffic which is an offence under the Motor Vehicle Act.
In this regard, SP (Superintendent of Police) -Traffic - East Khasi Hills, Shillong, Shailendra Bamaniya has requested the drivers to avoid such negligence for the safety of other road users/pedestrians.
''It is requested that if anyone is seen violating the above, they may kindly inform the matter along with the details of the vehicle by contacting the Police Control Room, Shillong for taking necessary action,'' he said.
The Police control room phone numbers are 100 / 0364-2215427 / 0364-2222277, he said, adding that the WhatsApp Number is 60091-96479.
