What Traffic Police Check First When They Stop Your Vehicle – Indian Roads Reality

Whenever the traffic police stops you, it skips for a second.Whether you're following the rules, that's still the thought that comes to mind:

"Now what will you check? "Did you miss anything? "

Most of the drivers seem to be:

"We will see only helmets or seatbelts. "

But here's the truth:
The checking of traffic police is done according to a fixed system.
And if you understand this system:

There will be no unnecessary penalties

There will be no arguments

Don't worry

In the article I will tell you the exact order:

What is the first thing that the traffic police check? which item has the highest invoice

And what small mistake can become a big legal problem?

And it's not a textbook.
This is the ground reality of Indian roads.

Let's first understand: Why are you being stopped by the police?

The traffic police do not stop every vehicle randomly.The reason is usually:

Regular inspections

Checking of helmet / seatbelt

Suspicious driving pattern

The number plate or the position of the vehicle is abnormal.

Special Enforcement Operations - Festivals, Elections, Accident prone areas

The important thing:
If you're stopped, you've already seen me.

Check #1: Driving Licence (DL)- First and foremost why do the police check the DL first?

Because the driving license legally certifies that:

You are authorized to drive

You have followed the minimum legal process.

What to check:

The license is valid or has expired.Whether or not the vehicle category matches

A car with a license? ⁇ ⁇

Commercial vehicles from the LMV? ⁇

Whether or not the rules of the learner's license are being followed

The ground reality:

A lot of people say:

"I forgot my license. "

But according to the law:

It is mandatory to have a physical license in Digilocker / mParivahan

Sending a photo or showing it later is not a valid proof

Illegal driving = No license

Check #2: Helmet / Seatbelt

This is what the police see through the door.

For two-wheelers:

Helmets are mandatory for riders. Helmets are also mandatory for pillion riders in many states

The helmet should bear the ISI mark.

For a four-wheeled vehicle:

Front seatbelt is mandatory.

The rear seatbelt is also mandatory in many States.

The common myth:

"Only the helmet should be in the hand. "

The helmet must be worn, the strap is properly locked.

Check #3: Vehicle Registration (RC)

The RC proves that:

The vehicle is legally registered.

The ownership is clear.

The vehicle was not stolen.

What the police are investigating:

Whether or not the RC is valid

Temporary registration will not be terminated.

Chassis / engine number does not match

Digital RC:

DigiLocker or mParivahan RC is fully valid

The screenshot also runs, if the details are clear.

Check #4: Insurance status

Today's police report:

Hand-held devices

Central Vehicle Database Access

So, whether you want to or not:
The insurance status is checked.

What the police are looking for:

The insurance is active or expired.

Whether or not third-party insurance exists

Reality:

The insurance has expired = Illegal vehicles on the road

Whether there is an accident or not, there will be a challan

Check #5: Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate

People take PUC very lightly.
But this is the top priority at the time of implementation.

The police are investigating:

PUC is valid or expired.Whether the emission norms are being followed according to the type of vehicle

The truth:

The end of the PUC means:

good

Repeat Offences Equal to a Higher Penalty

Check #6: Number plate

The police pay a lot of attention to the number plate because:

CCTV

ANPR cameras

Crime tracking

An example of an invalid number plate:

Fancy Fonts

Regional Language Plates

HSRP is missing

Flag / Emblem / Caste Sticker

If the number plate is not in accordance with the standard:
The police will stop you.

Check #7: Vehicle Modification

A lot of people scare me:

vigorous ejection

Additional lights

Modified Silencer

Structural changes

But according to the law:

Unauthorized modification = Illegal vehicle

Police Special

exhaust noise

The intensity of the headlights

Aftermarket CNG / LPG (without RC update)

Check #8. Alcohol / drug use

If the police:

smell

Red eyes

ambiguous speech

It is noted that:

A breathalyzer test is

a positive test.=

Heavy penalty

License suspension possible

Insurance problems later

#9: Pending Challan / Blacklist Status

I've got the police:

pending invoice

Court notice

Vehicle blacklist

Everything is visible.

If:

Old invoices are due

The vehicle involved in the previous crime

To:

The vehicle may also be

Check #10: Your behavior

This written law is not me, but the most powerful factor in the ground reality.Police are investigating.

You're quiet or aggressive.

You're collaborating or arguing.

You're either respected or you're

The truth:

The case of the driver who remains calm is usually simple.

The Most Common Mistakes Drivers Make

Document incomplete

High self-confidence: "I know the rules."

arguing instead of listening.

Fake excuses

Phone Equivalent recording without permission

What you should do when the traffic police stop you - The right way

If an invoice is generated, ask for a receipt

Don't ever offer cash

Important legal truths (most people don't know)

The police can examine the documents.

Police can impose fines.

The police cannot seize the vehicle in every case.

If You're right to talk respectfully.

The final reality:

Traffic police don't bother you.
She follows a certain checklist.

If you're:

Keep your documents ready

Car is legal

Keep your behaviour in check

Here : 95% of the checking ends the same.
