"With the help of advanced breath analysers, traffic police will able to get a photograph of the offending motorist or bikers. They will also able get information about the repeat offenders, collected in the data base," an official said.
A few days ago, the city traffic police also started issuing e-challans to penalise motorists, who violate traffic rules.
