With a very heavy heart, I want to confess that I won’t be driving more than 50 kms per hour on the roads of New Delhi. I will definitely look up at the informatory traffic sign board that depicts the maximum speed allowed.
But running at more than 50 even on the road that permits 80 kms per hour?
No, A big NO! I won’t be heavy-footed on the accelerator. Who knows when the boundary of that road ends and you will not get the enough time to slow down back to 50. Meanwhile you are being shot by a speed gun installed just a few meters away. This leads to what…?
CHALLAN, a fine you would have to pay in such cases. You should be, as technically you are breaking the law.
I received the challan after one week which said that either I have to pay 1400 rupees or go to jail for 3 months or both can be served to me in case of non-payment. So ... I won't speed up!
In New Delhi, the speed limit varies. For e.g. on the ring road it’s 60 for cars, but on outer ring road it’s reduced to 50.
Check the speed limit.
