A large number of vehicles running without valid fitness certificates, licences and route permits are getting away scot-free because of a serious shortage of traffic dumping grounds in the capital.
Traffic police allow such vehicles to go free as there is no permanent dumping station for the seized vehicles.
They are also flexible to traffic lawbreakers, which may throw the entire traffic management into disarray.
Sources at Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) said there are nine temporary traffic dumping stations in the DMP area and most of their spaces are filled with the seized vehicles.
