From what we heard the goverment has decided to increase traffic fines on 10 major offences that causes road accidents on Sri lankan roads. While this is in the right direction they should also concentrate on implementing and policing the roads more efficiently and aggressively if actually the numbers are to be brought down. Also workshops have to be conducted along with awareness programs on television is a must. Personally the insurance claim system too has to be more stricter and regulated.
Anyway here are some of the offences that will be under the Rs. 25,000/- fine;
- Driving under the influence of Liquor
- Driving without a valid driving licence
- Entering a vehicle into a railway crossing irresponsibly
- Driving by an underage [ below 18 years ]
- Driving without a valid insurance.
Well safe motoring guys...
