Common questions
Is wearing a seatbelt mandatory for all passengers in India?
Yes. Under the Motor Vehicles Act, seatbelts are mandatory for the driver and all front-seat passengers. Since 2022, rear-seat passengers must also wear seatbelts. Violation invites a ₹1,000 fine. Children under 4 years must use a child restraint seat, and children under 12 must sit in the back seat.
How much is the fine for using a mobile phone while driving?
Using a hand-held mobile phone while driving attracts a fine of ₹5,000 under the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019. Repeat offenders face higher fines and potential licence suspension. Hands-free use is permitted but still discouraged as it causes cognitive distraction.
Can my driving licence be suspended for traffic violations?
Yes. Courts and traffic authorities can suspend or revoke your licence for serious violations including: drunk driving, dangerous driving, causing fatal accidents, and repeat violations within a short period. Licence suspension ranges from 3 months to permanent cancellation depending on severity and history.
What is the penalty for drunk driving in India?
For a first offence: up to ₹10,000 fine and/or up to 6 months imprisonment. For repeat offenders: up to ₹15,000 fine and/or up to 2 years imprisonment. Your vehicle can be impounded and your licence suspended. If the drunk driving results in an accident, charges of culpable homicide may apply.
What should I do immediately after a road accident?
First, ensure your own safety, then check on others. Call 112 (emergency) or 108 (ambulance) immediately. Do not move injured persons unless there is immediate danger of fire. Photograph the scene for evidence. Exchange insurance and licence details with the other party. Under the Good Samaritan Law, you are legally protected when helping accident victims.
