Playing music while driving? Now, face it(The Pioneer,May 3,2010)


Get ready for stiff penalties for talking on your mobile phone or listening to music on I-pod or even using handsfree and Bluetooth devices while driving. For the first time in India, mobile phones, hi-tech gadgets, Bluetooth devices, walkman, handsfree, I-pods and similar electronic gizmos would be defined under law and banned from use while driving.
An expert committee, appointed last year by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) to examine amendments in Motor Vehicles Act 1988, has finalised its report and proposed landmark changes. According to sources, an advance report would be submitted to Minister Kamal Nath on May 10, paving the way for legislation
amendments after eight years.
According to highly-placed sources, the key recommendations are stiffer penalties for talking over a mobile phone while driving. At present, the fine extends to a maximum of Rs 1,000. However, the committee has proposed a stiffer penalty of Rs 2,000 on the first offence, Rs 5,000 for second and Rs 6,000 for third offence, followed by a suspension of driving licence. The gray area in the law on handsfree and other devices will be removed as all electronic gizmos would be defined under law.
A source said, �We have specifically defined all gadgets, including I-pods and handsfree, so that a policeman is not misled by people claiming that they were listening to music on their cellphones when they were actually talking on the phone.� The Act would now have proper definitions and clearly spell out that even listening to music on an I-pod while driving would be banned under law.
Another landmark amendment would be graded punishment for drunken driving.The fine would depend on the amount of alcohol in driver�s blood. Sources said there was a proposal to recommend a death sentence for causing death while driving under the influence. However, the Ministry�s consultative committee rejected this proposal. According to sources, MPs including Naveen Jindal and TR Baalu protested against such a stringent rule arguing that even a social drinker could be unfortunate enough to commit such a mistake.A source said,�There was much protest... even the MHA has advised us against it.�
The committee has now decided to impose stiff penalties extending up to Rs 5,000 and suspension of the driving license from six to nine months for driving under the influence of alcohol. There is a provision for �on-the-spot suspension� of license if found drunk behind the wheel.
All compensations would be linked to the price index and would be hiked annually.A formula will be proposed in the Act for annual revision.
For the first time in India, a hit-and-run accident will be defined under law that would enable the victims to get an immediate compensation of up to Rs 1 lakh. A solatium fund will be created to award compensation to victims of hit-and-run accidents. The final compensation package would be calculated on the basis of a number of factors -- like the age of the victim, how grievously the victim has been hurt and if there has been any permanent disability. A victim could get up to Rs 12-lakh compensation.
The Ministry had first introduced Motor Vehicles Act amendment in May 2007.However, the amendment Bill was referred to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Transport, Tourism and Culture. After a year, the committee gave its recommendations in 2008. The Ministry finally prepared the amendment Bill after vetting by the Law and Home Ministries in 2009. However, the Minister refused to sign it, saying the exercise must be repeated. Nath constituted a new committee to look into it all over again. The Ministry now plans to send the Bill for consideration and passing in Parliament in the Winter Session.





SO as we are thinking about riding gear for afety same importance should be given for not listening to music while driving or riding

I love music too. Indian classical and ghazals most. But I think music and riding should not be mixed.

I am a big fan of music. I listen to very different music. Recently, again began to listen to the Queen.
