Maruti Suzuki will set up 12 automated driving centres in Delhi

Maruti Suzuki India Limited has joined hands with Delhi government to establish 12 automated driving centers across the National Capital Territory (NCT). As per the Memoranda of Agreement (MoA), Maruti Suzuki will build the driving test centers which will include technical driving routes, high definition cameras and an integrated IT system to govern the entire automation process. The system is primarily incorporated to reduce human errors and discretion. Maruti will setup and maintain the centers for three years whereas the transport department will conduct tests and issue driving licenses to eligible applicants. 

The carmaker will be investing approximately Rs 15 crore for this initiative. Once ready for use, the centers will be handed over to the transport department.  The automated driving test centres will be set up at Hauz Khas, Shakur Basti, Raja Garden, Hari Nagar, Burari, Loni Road, Sarai Kale Khan, Rohini, Jharoda Kalan, Mayur Vihar Phase I, Surajmal Vihar and Dwarka in the first phase.

The company has around 430 driving schools which function in partnership with dealerships across India. Maruti also manages six IDTRs (Institute of Driving, Training and Research) in the country.
