Buses to have GPS system in Mangalore

Fitting of Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment will be made mandatory for all the buses in the district, for regulating the speed of the buses, said Dakshina Kannada district deputy commissioner, V Ponnuraj.

As the GPS makes it possible to ascertain the speed of the buses, places through which they move etc., the authorities can exercise better control over them. The GPS was implemented in the past, but many buses are still to be provided with this system. Therefore, it has been decided to make it compulsory for all the buses moving in the district, he clarified.
