Summary:
After implementation of the new Motor Vehicles Act, the strictness of Delhi Traffic Police on the roads has made people cautious of thick challans. Not only this, to avoid heavy fines, triple riding on two-wheelers has also reduced and more people are wearing seat belts in their car than before. After the new rules came into force, the survey was conducted at Burari Chowk, Bhalswa Chowk and Mukundpur Chowk in Delhi. Earlier, only 7.5% of such drivers used to wear seat belts, while now the number has soared to 88%. There has also been an increase of 17.8% among those driving cars with seat belts..
