The initiative aims to remove unsafe and high-emission cars from roads while stimulating the auto market. Officials expect improved vehicle roadworthiness and lower emissions following implementation. The scheme aligns environmental goals with public safety improvements. 👉 SaferDaily Insight: Safer roads begin with safer vehicles — upgrading responsibly protects both drivers and the planet.
