Chennai
Chennai the new Tech hub. Humid weather. The Masala dosas and smell of sambar in the air. Nariyal Pani. The Marina beach. The sweet smell of Jasmine garlands. The AIADMK and the Almighty JAYA. Shivaji Ganeshan and Kamal Hassan. Temples built for heroines and self-immolation bid for not getting ticket in a theater screening a Rajnikant movie. The Natural Icecreams. The temples. But what about the roads and traffic condition here? Discuss and share.

Thumbs up Hyundai patrol cars for Chennai police

The next time you break the law in Chennai, prepare yourself to be caught by the Chennai police in a swanky car – thanks to Hyundai.

The Hyundai Motor India presented the Chennai City Police Force with 100 Accents that will be their new patrol vehicles.


The police say they will now be able to respond to distress calls from citizens in less than three minutes.

The cars will soon have digital cameras to catch traffic violations and crime scenes on video.


The keys to the cars were handed over by HMIL Managing Director H S Lheem to Chief Minister M Karunanidhi at a function in Chennai on Tuesday.

Union Communications and IT Minister Dayanidhi Maran was also present.

An HMIL release said the company recognised the importance of managing the ever growing traffic on Indian roads.

"The initiative of donating vehicles to the Chennai Police is a bid to help the Tamil Nadu government to improve local traffic conditions," it said.

So now think twice before you decide to break the speed limit.
