Traffic Fines in Noida

After the release of the revised Motor Vehicles Act of 2019, there has been a significant increase in traffic fines across a majority of states, including Uttar Pradesh.

Not only have the fines increased, but the Traffic Management Department is also planning to take strict action against violations such as spitting tobacco on the roads or public spaces, not carrying an insurance certificate, and more.

With that being said, it is very important to stay aware of the traffic regulations and adhere to them in order to avoid fines and legal consequences.

New Four-Wheeler Traffic Rules in Noida

-Wear Seatbelts: When driving a car on the public roads of Noida, both the driver as well as the passenger(s) should wear a seatbelt. Doing so not only helps you avoid getting fined but also keeps you and your passengers safe.

-Avoid Using Mobile Phone When Driving: Texting or calling while driving is one of the most common reasons behind devastating road accidents. Many people even end up losing their lives because of this nasty habit. But not any more. If you are found using a mobile phone or any other device while driving in Noida, you will instantly be issued an e-challan with significant fines.

-Stay Within the Permitted Speed Limit: Every driver should understand that the speed limit boards are installed on the roads for some reason. Always keep in mind that following these speed limit signs is not an option but mandatory. Thus, always driving within the allowed speed limit.

-Carry Required Documents: Apart from a valid driving licence, it is mandatory for every driver in Noida to carry other documents such as a motor insurance certificate, vehicle RC, PUC certificate, vehicle fitness certificate (for commercial vehicles) and a few more. Not carrying these documents can lead to fines ranging from ₹500 to ₹10,000.

-No Drinking and Driving: Noida traffic police are very strict regarding drunk driving incidents. If you are caught drunk while driving your vehicle, strict legal action will be taken against you, besides the issuance of a drink-and-drive fine in Noida. Not just the fines, you might also have to spend a night behind bars.

-Avoid Parking in “No Parking Zone”: If you don’t already know, you can not park your vehicle at random spaces. Doing so will result in a heavy no-parking fine in Noida. Thus, you should always park in the designated parking areas.

-Always Wear Helmet: It doesn’t matter if you are riding a bike or a scooter; you must wear a good quality helmet. In addition to the rider, wearing a helmet is also necessary for the pillion passenger. It is a critical riding accessory that keeps you safe on the road. Note that the fine for not wearing a helmet in Noida has increased threefold since the introduction of the Motor Vehicle Act of 2019. Check out the next section for the exact fine amount.

-Avoid Triple Riding: Triple rifling is a serious traffic offence in the entire state of Uttar Pradesh. It is very dangerous and can lead to life-threatening road accidents. Thus, avoid triple-riding no matter what.

-Carry Required Documents: Driving without a licence fine in Noida is applicable every time you are found driving/riding in the absence of a valid driving licence. However, a valid DL is not the only document you need to carry. It is mandatory for every rider to carry suitable insurance for a 2-wheeler, a PUC certificate, etc.

-No Race Trials/Overspeeding: Always ride your bike within the permitted speed limits. In addition, avoid engaging yourself in dangerous race trial activities.

-No Mobile Phone When Riding: The use of mobile phones is another serious traffic offence in Noida. So, keep your phone in your bag/pocket and focus on riding your bike using both hands.

It is important to know that violation of traffic rules in Noida doesn’t go unnoticed. You will be issued an e-challan as soon as you are found breaking a traffic rule. This e-challan contains all the details of your offence along with a payable fine and is sent to you via SMS or email on your registered contact details.

For instance, if you fail to present a valid driving licence to the traffic police, you will have to face a driving without licence fine in Noida, which will be issued immediately.

Every e-challan comes with a deadline of 60 days, within which it must be paid. If you fail to pay your challan within this timeframe, you may have to deal with serious penalties.

There are two ways to pay traffic fines in Noida. Let’s discuss both of them in detail:
