The PSCA e-challan Punjab system has made checking and paying traffic fines much easier in 2026. If you drive in Punjab, you no longer need to visit traffic offices or wait in long queues. Everything can be done online in a few minutes using your vehicle details.
This digital system is managed by the Punjab Safe Cities Authority, which uses modern surveillance technology to enforce traffic laws fairly and transparently.

Common violations include:

Over-speeding

Jumping red lights

Illegal parking
