Challan can be deducted even for riding a bike wearing slippers, see how much the fine will have to be paid?

After the death of former Tata Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry in a road accident, a debate has started in the country regarding traffic rules. Now the government is going to make it mandatory to put seat belts on the back seat in cars as well. According to the World Bank, about 1.5 lakh people die in road accidents every year in the country. Every four minutes a person loses his life in an accident. According to one figure, most of the two-wheeler riders who die in accidents are involved. Many safety rules have been made for two-wheeler riders in the country, but the surprising thing is that most of the motorcyclists are not well aware of the traffic rules. Here we are telling you one such rule, which is that you cannot ride a motorcycle wearing slippers. If this happens, the traffic police can deduct your challan.

How much will the challan be deducted?

Under the Motor Vehicle Act, it is considered an offense to ride a bike with slippers, slippers, sandals or floaters. The reason behind this is that due to this type of footwear, the grip is weak and the feet can slip. Also, while shifting gears on a motorcycle, there is a good chance that this type of footwear may slip the foot causing an accident. In such a situation, the bike owner’s challan of up to Rs 1000 can be deducted.

Dress code has to be taken care of on the bike

Apart from this, it is very important for the driver to take care of the proper dress code while riding the bike. For example, pants, shirt or t-shirt should be worn while riding a motorcycle. They cover the body completely. In case of any accident, these clothes can keep the body safe to some extent. If you ignore this rule, then your challan can be deducted up to Rs 2000. Therefore, while riding a bike, definitely follow this rule.
