In a strict enforcement of traffic safety laws, a Nagpur court fined a vehicle owner ₹30,000 and cancelled the vehicle’s registration for one year after it was discovered that a minor had been driving the vehicle. The incident, which came to light on October 3, 2025, underscores the judiciary’s commitment to road safety and the legal responsibilities of vehicle owners. Authorities noted that the minor was caught during a routine traffic check, prompting an investigation into the vehicle owner’s accountability. The court emphasized that allowing an underage individual to drive violates traffic regulations and endangers public safety, making the owner legally liable for any potential consequences. Legal experts said the fine and suspension of registration serve as a deterrent to negligent behavior by vehicle owners. Police and traffic officials have urged citizens to ensure compliance with driving laws and to prevent underage driving, stressing that similar offenses will be dealt with strictly in the future. The incident has also sparked discussions among parents and community leaders about educating minors on road safety and the importance of responsible vehicle ownership. #NagpurNews #TrafficSafety #UnderageDriving #RoadSafety #CourtRuling #VehicleRegistration #LegalAccountability #PublicSafety #MinorDriving #TrafficLaw
