Punjab Launches Pakistan’s First AI-Based Driving Test Car

Punjab has taken a groundbreaking step in modernizing its licensing system by introducing Pakistan’s first Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered driving test car, developed on the special instructions of Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif.
The smart vehicle, designed and built by the Traffic Police, aims to make driving tests more transparent, fully automated, and free from human influence.
Inside, the vehicle features a facial recognition camera and a biometric fingerprint scanner, while four external cameras record driving behavior during the test.
Once a candidate sits in the car, the system activates automatically, providing test instructions, a countdown timer, and checks for safety features like the handbrake and seatbelt.
The AI-powered system can also automatically declare a failure, such as if a candidate engages reverse gear more than once.
Test results are updated instantly without requiring any manual input.
