Drunk & drive
5 years ago
I caught in a Drunk & drive case . Police has given me a memo mentioning date to present in court. Is it possible to present in a court on a date other than that either earlier or later? Is it possible that any lawyer will represent in court on my behalf ? What is the minimum fine that have to pay in pune for that
A.Dear Client,
I am glad that you have admitted your fault.
You have asked few things and I am answering your question one after the other.
1.If you are so busy and can not go to the Court and intend to either pre pone or postpone the Visit, in either case you have to inform them with sufficient reason backed by documentary evidence.
2.Yes, you can ask an Advocate through Vidhikarya.com to represent you on payment of charges of course which will be decidedin consultation with Vidhikarya.com
3.Regarding the Minimum fine, please see what I am writing .In addition to that ask your Advocate to give you the updates.
Fine
The Amendment Bill aims to improve road safety and provides for higher level of fines and penalty for drunk driving. The penalty for drunk driving under the Motor Vehicle (Amendment) Bill 2016 has been increased from Rs.2000 to Rs.10,000.
Fine in Bangalore
The punishment for drunk driving is six month's imprisonment or payment of a fine up to Rs.2,000/- or both. If the offender is caught committing the offence a second time, he will have to face imprisonment of two years or a fine up to Rs.3,000 or both.
Punishment for Drink and Drive
Driving or attempting to drive while above the legal limit or unfit through drink. A person could get 6 months' imprisonment, an unlimited fine or a driving ban for at least 1 year (3 years if convicted twice in 10 years). Refusing to provide a specimen of breath, blood or urine for analysis.
Any question at this stage?

A.Dear Sir,
My go through the following.
"My experience, May, 2018 - Caught for drink and drive near khadki.. The police took my license.. Gave me a date to be present at court on 28th May 2018…they charged me under offences like drink and drive and for not producing the RC and Insurance papers.. Where in they never asked me for the papers.. And only took my license…..so here how it goes.. First get a good lawyer.. I got one who was in my contact and the lady did every paper work for me and it was hassle free for me though time consuming… before going to the court.. Get the CR number from the police station (the area in which you were caught)…. There are always 2 different police stations for a particular area.. Regular police station and a traffic police station where you'll only see the traffic cops and there is where they have all your details and CR number stored.. If you were caught for drink and drive… your details are uploaded on this site (Traffic Branch | Pune City Police) including the date you were caught, your name, address, section, vehicle registration number and the reading that was captured in the breathalyzer… once you've got the CR number.. Go to the court.. There is a different court room especially for traffic cases..you can find lawyers standing outside the court room to bait the once caught in drink and drive… they'd normally ask you to pay 1k as their fee.. But you can bargain too if you've got good bargaining skills.. They'd normally not do each and everything.. But they'd only do your paper work and advice you what needs to be done.. Though in my case.. As I knew the lawyer.. She did everything for me and meanwhile I was roaming around and checking out the court and the criminal court cases that were going on(it was my first time in a court so was kinda excited to see how it goes) P. S DON'T JUDGE ME FOR THAT… Though you need not worry if it was first offence as they might only charge you the fine.. I paid 2200 as a fine"
