However, fines for violations such as overspeeding, drunken driving and racing will remain unchanged.

Bengaluru: Falling in line with states like Gujarat and Uttarakhand, the Karnataka government has reduced the high traffic fines introduced by the Centre under the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019 by 30-50 per cent. The latest changes come after Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa said last week that he will follow Gujarat’s footsteps in cutting down the steep fine amounts.

As per the notification issued by the state transport department Saturday, the penalty for riders not wearing a helmet and seat belt is now reduced from Rs 1000 to Rs 500. The same for driving without a license has seen a higher dip.

Incidentally, most penalties levied on violators by the Bengaluru City Traffic police since the implementation of the high fines prescribed by the Centre were from those who chose not to wear helmets while riding.
