According to some media reports, the expressway agency and RTO are now checking the vehicles plying on the expressway. If a defect is found in the tire of the vehicle during this inspection, then a heavy fine of up to Rs 20,000 can be imposed on your vehicle. However, the amount of the fine has not been decided yet. The strictness related to the tire is being done so that the tire of the vehicle running at high speed on the expressway does not burst anywhere. This also increases the chances of accident.
Many different rules have been made regarding the speed of the vehicle on the inter-expressway and highway of the country. In this, the high speed of the vehicle running on the expressway is up to 120 kilometers per hour. It is very important to have the right tires of a vehicle running at such a speed. Because if the tire bursts then it will be very difficult to handle the vehicle at this speed. Let us tell you that due to over speed on Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway many accidents have happened. This expressway is 701 kilometers long.
Speed limit rules in the country
There are different rules regarding the speed of vehicles running on National Highway and Expressway in India. Where the maximum speed limit of 100 km/h has been fixed for the car on the National Highway, then this limit is 120 km/h on the expressway. The speed limit is also different for two-wheelers and heavy vehicles. The speed limit on highways and expressways is 80km/h for two-wheelers and 100km/h for heavy vehicles, such as buses and trucks. The speed limit is reduced during the winter season.
Monitoring is done by CCTV cameras
Such CCTV cameras have been installed on almost all the expressways of the country which keep an eye on the speed of the vehicle. If you keep the speed of the vehicle more than 120km/h, then its time at the next toll plaza is known. After which the vehicle can be challaned there. Although this challan is fixed, but according to the speed, more can be done. Like crossing the speed limit on Yamuna Expressway, a challan of Rs 500 is levied. However, sometimes the invoice can be more. Driving license can be canceled in the condition of not filling the challan.
