Over 2,360 Vehicles Inspected in Kabul and Provinces to Improve Transport Safety Standards

Last week, the Technical Services and Security Department along with the Transport Market Regulation Units in the provinces conducted technical inspections on 704 vehicles in Kabul and 1,660 vehicles across other provinces. The aim was to ensure that transportation vehicles meet safety and quality standards. These inspections are aimed at improving the quality and safety of transport vehicles; however, these activities take place amid persistent fundamental problems in infrastructure and effective supervision of transportation across the country. Limitations and shortages in continuous monitoring have raised concerns among transport users and citizens. So far, the Taliban administration has not taken significant action to address the widespread weaknesses in this sector.
