New Traffic Rules: According to the updated traffic regulations, even if you are wearing a helmet, you could be fined Rs 2000. How is this possible? Today, we will explain it to you. The Motor Vehicle Act applies to motorcycles and scooters.
Road safety has always been a major concern in India, and the government is taking significant steps to improve it and ensure greater safety for people on the road. However, meaningful change can’t be achieved solely by the government’s efforts. The general public must also play an active role in promoting safe driving practices. Alongside these efforts, we must also ensure all necessary safety measures when we step out on the road. For example, if you’re riding a two-wheeler, wearing a helmet is essential, and it should be worn correctly. Wearing a helmet improperly not only puts your safety at risk but could also result in a hefty fine.
Here we will tell you today that even if you are wearing a helmet, you can still get a challan. The reason for this is not wearing the helmet properly. People often wear helmets only because they have to avoid a challan. In such a situation, they put on a helmet in a hurry after seeing the traffic police or camera in front. In such a case, many times the helmet strap is not put on properly.
Challan of Rs 2000
In such a case, the traffic police has the right to issue a challan. In this case, the police can issue a challan of Rs 1000. If you are driving with a helmet in your hand, then your challan will be of Rs 2000.
Use ISI marked helmet
Apart from this, one more thing you have to keep in mind is to always use a helmet with ISI mark. Because, no ordinary helmet will be able to protect you at the time of an accident. So buy the right helmet and use it properly.
