Under the central text of section 201(1) of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, what is the stated maximum penalty for keeping a vehicle in a public place so as to impede free traffic, subject to the section’s exceptions?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Section 201(1) specifies a penalty up to "Rs 500." while the vehicle remains in the obstructing position, and the current text does not express it as a per-hour rate like "Rs 200 per hour." or "Rs 100 per hour." For an accident vehicle liability begins after inspection formalities, section 201(3) excludes an unforeseen breakdown while removal is in progress, and removal charges may be recovered separately.
