Defying a government ban, CNG-run three-wheelers are still plying on highways in large numbers. Though law enforcers are taking various measures, little progress has been made in this regard. Road accidents on highways are claiming lives every day and these CNG-run three-wheelers are a major contributing factor. The government ban on three-wheelers on highways was imposed back in 2015 making highways off limits for them. The government should either ensure the implementation of the ban or make separate lanes for three-wheelers on highways.
