Pimpri RTO Acts Against Vehicle Owner After Viral Mumbai-Pune Expressway Video, Imposes Rs 4500 Fine Pune, September 9: The Pimpri-Chinchwad Regional Transport Office (RTO) has taken action against the owner of a vehicle after a video showing the vehicle on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway went viral on social media. Following the circulation of the video, RTO officials visited the vehicle owner's permanent address and conducted an inspection of the vehicle. According to the RTO, the vehicle bearing registration number had a clearly visible rear registration number at the toll plaza. However, while the vehicle was being driven on the expressway, a device installed on the vehicle was allegedly being used to deliberately conceal the rear registration number, apparently to avoid detection through the e-challan system. The RTO initiated proceedings against the vehicle under Sections 41, 52, 177, 182A and 179 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. A total fine of ₹4,500 was recovered from the vehicle owner. The device used to conceal the registration number was also removed from the vehicle in the presence of officials from Flying Squad No. 5 of the Pimpri-Chinchwad RTO. The action was carried out by Motor Vehicle Inspector Vishal Thorat and Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspector Srinivas Shinde. The RTO said the action followed the viral social media video and the subsequent inspection of the vehicle.
