CA Palak Rathi Instagram – You NEED TO KNOW this before paying your challan!
As per section 139 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules 1989, The driver or conductor of a motor vehicle shall produce certificate of :
• registration
• insurance
• fitness
• permit
• the driving licence
or any other relevant documents
on demand by any police officer in uniform or any other officer authorized by the State Government in this behalf, and if any or all of the documents are not in his possession, he shall produce in person an extract or extracts of the documents duly attested by any police officer or by any other officer or send it to the officer who demanded the documents by registered post within 15 days from the date of demand. Hence you don’t need to pay your penalty then and there!
All this comes under the purview of the Motor Vehicles Act 1988
Don’t forget your documents next time and if you do, you now know your rights!
