| Hyderabad Hyderabad - Istanbul of India. Jami Masjid, Toli Masjid, the Char Minar. Hustle and bustle of market life. Golconda Fortress, tombs of the Quatab Shahi Kings. Central Library, Osmania University, Public Gardens, Osman Sagar. Colourful bazaars, traditional Muslim gear and Mughlai delicacies. Hub of IT & Telecommunications, MNCs, superspeciality hospitals, medical tourism. Pleasant climate, magnificent cuisine, Hyderabadi Biryani, splendid shopping areas. But how is this fascinating amalgam of cultures coping with the traffic and road problems? |

Smart Cards to replace driving licences soon
In a massive exercise, the Transport Department is planning to replace the existing driving licences with `Smart Cards' to ensure tamper proof vehicle documents. The new cards are likely to be introduced within three months in the city.
Driving licence with a Smart Card containing a memory chip prevents vehicle owners from giving false addresses and resorting to forgery of documents. It contains the details of fitness, pollution and insurance documents besides personal details of the owner. Details of number of cases booked under the Motor Vehicle Act against a motorist by officials of the Regional Transport Authority (RTA) will also be included in the chip. Any data of the cardholder can be obtained within minutes by swiping it to a handheld reader.

Are these smart cards hack proof? What prevents people from loading false addresses etc. on to the smart card? The skeptic in me can imagine an "agent" with an old pc in the back room changing data on these cards at will....
