A police officer seizes a licence under section 206(2) of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 because a driver charged with an offence may abscond or avoid service of summons. Where must the licence be forwarded?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
A licence seized under section 206(2) because a charged driver may abscond or avoid summons is forwarded to the court taking cognizance. A licence seized under section 206(4) for a listed offence instead goes to the licensing authority for disqualification or revocation proceedings. The destination therefore depends on the statutory ground of seizure.
