As part of Tehran Municipality’s unending fight against dirty air, over the past seven weeks half a million smog inducing vehicles have been fined for infringing traffic regulations.
Based on data released by the Tehran Vehicle Technical Inspection Bureau, since last November close to half a million vehicles have been fined at least once for breaking regulations declared by the TM’s Air Pollution Reduction scheme, Asr-e Khodro reported.
According to the APR plan launched by the municipality on Nov. 24 to help improve air quality, old and dilapidated vehicles are banned in the sprawling city and violators are fined.
