It is a welcome move by Hyderabad Police.

But how would they manage this, for example one licence is suspended, how would they ensure that the same person is not driving.

Whats are the charges if a person with suspended licence is found driving.

This is well tested and successfull formula on foreign lands, hope it works in India as well

40kmph speed inside the city, damm.. Travelling time will increase if everyone drives in that speed.[emoji10]


It's not 40kmph, read it as permitted speed (E.g. 60kmph) +40kmph above this speed to attract penalty points

Agree to this point, without proper infrastructure it is tough to achieve results.

It may be considered as If he is driving without license. 

 

How will they handle out of state license, One my friend has two licenses from two different states. :photo:

Yeah

Driving upto 40km/hr higher than permitted speed, penalty is 2 points.
Driving above 40km/hr higher than permitted speed, penalty is 3 points.

Our cabbies will be breaking that rule on daily basis. 

But where are the speed limit boards. :D

Better late than never, Brilliant step by the Hyderabad traffic police. It is a well known fact that, the formula has been successful in many parts of the world true but It is definitely a challenge to the officials having some serious control on this knowing the illegal acts occurring in the capital.

Hey Guys,

I am confused!

How are 12 points calculated, different sources show different information.

Is it like accumulating 12 in a year(1-Aug-17 to 1-Aug-18) or is it like accumulating at any point of time in any time period and licence stands canceled for 1 year

Agree on it, Information is not at all clear.

  • License is canceled, if you cross 12 points in the time period of 24 months
  • I guess it is from 1-August-17 to 1-August-19
  • Points will refresh after 1-August-19

There is no information on timelines, If license is canceled.

Imagine, If license is canceled on December-17, He will get it back on December-18.
From December-18, will he get complete 12 points till August-19.
