However, the local highway police denied the allegation that they took payments from the autorickshaw drivers on a monthly basis. Police said they are unable to stop the three-wheelers from running on the highways despite filing numerous cases against the errant drivers. We are constantly trying to keep the road safe,” said Nobir Hossain, chief of Kanchpur Highway Police Station. Kanchpur Highway Police Station is responsible for traffic control and order on the three highways adjacent to Dhaka. Some autorickshaws were waiting for passengers on the eastern slope of the Kanchpur bridge, just opposite Kanchpur Highway Police Station.
