Other states might follow suit in the coming weeks
- The state government has reduced the fines by 25-90 per cent.
- Fines for violations such as riding without a helmet and wrong-side riding/driving has been reduced.
- Karnataka’s state government will also reduce the fines soon.
A few weeks back, the central government passed the updated Motor Vehicle Act (MVA) according to which fines for traffic-related violations were increased to astronomical amounts. From paying Rs 5,000 for driving/riding without a license to Rs 10,000 for driving without a permit, here’s a detailed list of the new fines. However, the Gujarat government thinks that these fines are pretty hefty and has reduced some of them by around 25-90 per cent.

The Motor Vehicle Act allows the state governments to reduce fines for some violations and abiding by this rule, the central government of Gujarat has reduced the fines on riding without a helmet and wrong-side riding/driving. However, fines for major violations such as drink and drive, jumping traffic lights, underage drinking and so on are still the same as before. Along with Gujarat, even the Karnataka government is planning to revise the fines in the coming few weeks. In fact, other state governments have asked the government to reduce the fines as well.
Agreed, they are pretty hefty and most people won’t be able to pay such fines, but if everyone would’ve followed the rules in the first place, we would’ve never faced this situation. And wearing a helmet or following traffic rules are basic elements that need to be followed whether the fine is Rs 50 or Rs 5,000.

because the importance of performance, speed, ride smoothly, feel a better, style and look is choosen a based on the bike, or the brother have almost 5-7 brother chose a pulser on they are one reason the choose a bike. So far the ride has been completely fine. so far i have travelled mostly i group of 3 passenger but there is no different b/w travelling solo or in a triple, except that mileage may be different on the ride. I recommend the different reason pulsar buying i required on home to office on 60km going and 60km coming for they are not any problem on the ride time but the also required on 1.5litre petrol on tank or not but our bike is stop or not run 1 km to more or your choice you buy on your purpose.
