Driving Without DL: Driving a motor vehicle without a Driving License is a violation of traffic rules. According to the existing traffic rules, only those who have a driving license can drive a motor vehicle.
If someone drives a motor vehicle without a driving license, then the traffic police deducts the challan. But, many times it happens that people have a driving license but they forget to bring it with them while traveling with the vehicle. In such a situation, what would happen if the police stopped and asked to show the driving license?
In such a situation, when you are not able to show the driving license to the police and say that the license is at home, usually the police assume that you are making excuses to avoid the challan when you do not have a driving license. But, you can avoid this trouble. Before telling the method, please inform that driving without a driving license is a challan of up to Rs 5,000.
If you think that you can forget to keep the driving license with you, then you can keep it comfortably at your home. But, to do this, you must have kept the soft copy of your driving license in the DigiLocker mobile app, which is a government app. This app was prepared by the government focusing on Digital India.
DigiLocker aims to enable Indian citizens to carry their important documents in a paperless manner. In this you can upload your driving license. In this the soft copy of your DL will be saved. Now whenever a policeman stops you while driving and asks you to show your driving license, you can show the copy of your DL saved in DigiLocker.
By doing this you will get rid of the hassle of keeping the hard copy of DL with you. You will not need to keep the hard copy of the driving license with you all the time, but only its soft copy will work.
