Although no license cancellation has been approved, a cop said traffic-related offences can be brought down only when action is taken.

However, a total of 8,297 licenses were suspended.

Police booked 1,438 cases for drunken driving and 448 cases for over-speeding. Nearly 30,000 cases were registered against those riding two-wheelers without helmets.
