According to Total News, citing the Municipal Traffic and Transportation Organization, the Traffic Council has planned a special motorcycle lane on Molavi Street, and in this way, 2.5 meters of the width of the street will be dedicated to this matter. Although the plan of this issue made many people think that they are going to build a special line for motorcycles in Tehran soon, but Ali Nadran, the Superintendent of the Deputy of Transport and Traffic Organization Studies, emphasizes that this issue is only an idea and we need a period of 6 months to reach the conclusion of the studies. Since the motorcycle still does not have a legal status as a vehicle, their identity has not been identified and it is not possible to fully apply the regulations to them, it is likely that the creation of a special lane or traffic restriction for this vehicle will be postponed for a while that “motorcycle identification” has been operationalized as a vehicle.
Motorcycle is known as a popular and dangerous vehicle in Southeast Asian countries. In Southeast Asian countries, this vehicle was separated from other vehicles with special lanes to reduce damage to other vehicles and maintain the safety of the transportation system. Needless to say, in European countries where the volume of motorcycles is low, other methods are used to control the situation, the motorcycle can move with the flow of traffic or even in some cities such as London, this vehicle is allowed to pass in special bus lanes. The volume of motorcycles in London is very small and to protect the rider of this vehicle, such a method is used.
The volume of motorcycles in some roads in Tehran is much higher than private cars, Siroos and Molavi intersections are included in this category of roads. Of course, this point should be explained that over time, the limits of the traffic plan were created, which limited the entry of private cars. Despite this restriction, because the motorcycles did not have a specific identity, they were not penalized and easily entered the traffic plan. In this situation, the number of motorcycles increased in the central area of the city.
Just as the car has a plaque and cameras can fine them, the motorcycle must also have the ability to be recognized to transform the motorcycle into a vehicle under police surveillance.
