1. The direction to report for duty during knockdown does not mean that you will be exempted from traffic or general laws.

2.Now if the fact is you were fined even though you neither oversped nor broke any traffic signal then you can raise objection with the traffic department regarding this.

3. However to waive those irregular fines you need some prima facie evidence to establish that law was broken. 

You can contest it but being fine you need to pay it. You can write to traffic commissioner and can request for waiving the same for your service in covid 19

If you were over speeding you have to pay the fine 

2) 

if the e-challan is still not paid then the person who is guilty will get summon from the court and will be called to give clarification to the judge on breaking the law.

Third, if the person still refuses to attend the court session and to pay the e-challan, then his licence will be suspended.

4) you can take defence that red lights were not working hence fine not paid 

You can contest the challan if you wish

See in case of over-speeding you have to pay the challan as there is record as far as red light jumping is there if there is photograph of same then you have to pay as there is proof if no then you may contest it and can file reply to review the challan before traffic department.

Deserted road no reason to break traffic rules. Since you are engaged in essential services, request the authorities/ traffic SP to withdraw challans. 

Or communicate this through HOD and follow rules.

Or when appear in court to pay challan, request for benefit under probation of offenders act.

Violating the traffic rules cannot get an exemption.

Since you admit to have violated the traffic rules, you may have to pay the fines as imposed.

As the challans have been generated it becomes a record hence you may not get any relief or respite over it.

You can pay the fines one by one till the lock down is removed, but be careful that you do not violate the rules anymore.

Dear Sir,

It is sheer misuse of the police powers. You may file writ petition to quash all those notices in the High Court. It is a classic example as to how the traffic police exceeding their power and giving trouble to to the people even during this Lock Down period. If you have no money or don't want to spend money then approach any PIL advocate to file same as a challenge to the system prevailing in the society especially under nose of Parliament.

1. Absence of traffic on the road is no excuse to violate the traffic laws.

2. If, however, you have been challaned for red light jumping when there is no red light in the first place at that traffic stop then you may contest the traffic challan. The place where you allegedly jumped red light must have been clearly mentioned in the traffic challan.

- As per law, Traffic rules are made , to protect you and others while operating a vehicle on the road. 

- Further , only in the mitigating circumstance of a medical emergency, one is allowed to break the traffic rules , and with the permission of traffic police official.

- Hence, you are not allowed to violate the traffic rules , even due to the absent of traffic on read , and each & every violation will be counted as a separate violation, and you are bound to face the consequences for the same.

- However, if you think that you was in emergency duty of COVID-19 , then dont pay the fines after receiving the e-challan notice, and let the court issue a notice to you.

-  After receiving the said notice , you can prayed before the court for waiving the fines on the ground of COVID-19 emergency.

- Further , as per Central government direction , State governments cannot lower the fines for traffic violations below that prescribed under the Motor Vehicles Act,

Respected sir...

Not only you but many of other people are suffering from such kind of problem ... infact my father who is sub inspector in special cell..have faced 13 e challan in this lockdown period....sir ... The only way to make reductions of payment of such challan is to fill all challan in lok Adalat in the Honorable court only there  you can get relief .....

Thank you

Dear Sir,

You are suggested to have some patience now onwards during driving and write to traffic department to withdraw the said notice related to red light jump and over speeding. If not done by the police, do contest the matter in the court. 

You will get a call from the court or check the next date of appearance in court from online portal . Appear in court after lockdown and put your version. Challans might be cancelled by the judge on request and looking towards your contribution towards the country during this covid 19 situation. 

Please be aware that there is no excuse of there is no traffic on the road so you started speeding and jumped signal as well. You have to pay the challans else you have to appear in court and may sent to jail if don't pay fine imposed.

If you think that the amount is too much you should refuse to pay it and challenge before the court. The fine cannot be exorbitant and always should be in accordance with the law.

Regards

Dear Sir/ Madam,

If you have received e-challans you can surely ask for the footage of the same from the issuing authority. As per violations you should abide as per traffic speed specified

You should appear before metropolitant magistrate once court starts the operation and pray for consession on challan penalty as red lights was jumped due to confusion as due to less traffic they are not operating properly.

Exemption is not given to any one in the M.V Act or Rules . 

You can visit in the court and in your application mention the single conditions are not working properly so its very confusion in that and secondly you don't have capacity to pay such fine as of now so it should be reduce to 15-20%.  And hence forth will not do any such mistake as I have already paid the 7 challans.

You shouldn't pay the challan. Wait DHS or tge lockdown to open and contact a lawyer who will lessen your amount through the challan court.
