After an increasing number of traffic violations on the highways, the Karnataka police said that the First Information Reports (FIR) will be filed on those who were found driving on the wrong route of national highways. In the recent past, many people were seen driving in the opposite direction of Bengaluru Mysuru expressway which resulted in road accidents.
Recently, an X user shared a video of an SUV vehicle travelling in the opposite direction of the newly built expressway. Responding to the post, Karnataka additional director general of police (traffic and safety) wrote, “The vehicle in question is being booked u/s 184 IMV Act for dangerous driving and we are recommending suspension of DL too. Notice has been issued. Henceforth, FIR will be registered against persons driving in opposite directions on NH & action will be taken.”
