Traffic Fines by Pune RTO

All about RTO Fines in Pune

According to data released by the Maharashtra Traffic Police, Pune city witnessed 334 fatalities on account of road accidents in 2018. On the other hand, the rural areas in Pune saw 917 deaths due to road accidents in the same period.

Two of the major reasons for such casualties cited by the Maharashtra Traffic Police were over-speeding and inadvertence regarding traffic rules. However, such a state of affairs was noticed pan-India and was not merely restricted to Pune. (1)

In an attempt to curb such heedlessness regarding traffic laws, the Union government introduced a list of provisions in the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. It passed the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act in 2019 which became applicable on 1st September 2019. Multiple revisions were made to the Act which included revised challan rates.

In this article, we will go through the revised Pune RTO fines and look at the contrast between such new rates and previous rates. 

Has Pune Implemented New Traffic Fines?

The revised rates mentioned in the Motor Vehicle Amendment Act 2019 came into effect on 1st September 2019.

However, such a drastic change in the challan rates raised questions from all corners of the Maharashtra state, and on-field traffic police were befuddled as to which rates to formally conform to.

What added to the confusion of traffic police was the fact that no formal notice was issued from the State Government of Maharashtra.

However, after a period of deliberation, the Maharashtra State government decided to implement the Motor Vehicles Amendment Act 2019. 

Is There a Reduction of Traffic Fines in Pune?

No, even though the state government was tentative about imposing the newly introduced penalties on commuters, they finally decided to keep the fine amount high.

In turn, as per the new rates mentioned in the amended Act, there has been a considerable hike in the traffic fines by RTO in Pune.

List of Traffic/RTO Fines in Pune

The following table discusses the new fine list by RTO Pune, which is currently in action in comparison to the rates that were previously followed by the Maharashtra government.
