Live saving law, compulsory helmet

on a normal  day 15 to 20 vehicles are being ceased on Mandaveli signal in less than one hour out of  which 5 motorist had their helmet with them attached to the bike. 

Tamil Nadu government on July 1 announced that wearing of helmet by motorists will be compulsory , with violators facing the risk of their vehicle documents being impounded.
Even if your helmet is not wearable if its wet or hot one cannot be allowed to drive on road without a helmet. Natural calamities or any other will not be considered an excuse . 
Motorist without helmet have to submit their original licence and collect their charge sheet and pay a fine of 100 rs on the day of hearing which is approximately 5 days from the day of charging.

The impounded documents would be released only on production of new ISI certified helmet with purchase receipt, it added.

On June 8, the Madras High Court observed that it was disheartening to note that a number of precious lives were lost due to non-wearing of protective headgear and made wearing of helmets compulsory.


motorist feel that this new strict law implementation is indeed necessary as its a rule to save lives but on the other hand their is many discomfort in wearing it as well.
