New Motor Vehicles Act, 2019.

We have been hearing/reading about atrocious fines and penalties being levied on errant drivers, post implementation of new MV Act.
Even discounting the monies paid to corrupt enforcers to MV Act, it is still a good deterrent to erring MV users.

My two cents:

1. Can the Information and Broadcasting Ministry take stern action on all producers of soapies across all language channels in India, for depicting violations of MV Act? I have seen soapies where, various characters are shown not wearing seat belts, talking on cellphones while driving, etc. Though there is a warning message displayed during this violation, it is still an offence as they are using public roads for shooting the act.
2. Is the seat-belt for passenger's seat an Optional Extra? Do passengers feel that they are made of steel and won't be impacted in case of an accident? At least not to the extent of the driver? Poppycock! The impact of their head hitting the windscreen in case of an impact will fracture their skull and would mean instant death.
3. Why do we make young children sit in the front passenger's seat? Even in some of the developing countries like South Africa, it is illegal to carry children under a certain age, as passengers in the front seat. I have seen very young children on the lap of the driver while driving and these drivers must be penalised heavily.
