Annexure IV
INTRODUCTION TO CHAPTERS AND CHAPTER-WISE RECOMMENDATIONS
Chapter I: Preliminary The definitions in Chapter I of the Motor Vehicle Act (MVA) are used extensively in the Act, CMVR and other laws. The Committee, therefore, took great care to identify the use of a definition while suggesting amendments. The Committee noted that some of the definitions were out dated and inaccurate, leading to ambiguity. The Committee has suggested deletion or replacement of these definitions. The Committee has also sought to bring the definitions in harmony with definitions used internationally and also to make the definitions technology neutral and capable of accommodating technology changes in the future. Chapter II: Licensing of Drivers of Motor Vehicles In reviewing this Chapter the Committee has sought to re-organize the Chapter to provide for a better flow and integration of the provisions relating to eligibility, grant of license, suspension etc. and to telescope some of the provisions to avoid duplication of work. The Committee has also suggested provisions to standardize categories of vehicles, restrict issuance of multiple license, enhance the validity period of licenses, introduce an unique numbering scheme and effect changes in the eligibility criteria and test procedures to ensure better driver performance and road safety. Some of these suggestions are briefly described below:
1. Category of License
The Committee has recommended eight distinct categories of licenses which are enumerated alongwith eligibility criteria in Schedule 1. The Committee has also suggested the need for a specific authorization based on skill requirement to drive a specific vehicle or a motor vehicle for a specified purpose. This is being done in order to ensure better driving performance and road safety. A two stage procedure has been suggested for the grant of the license and subsequent authorization where necessary.
2. Unique number for driving license.
Presently the Act does not provide for a scheme for allotting numbers for driving licenses and this has resulted in the issue of the same number for a new licence or duplicate license issued by different RTOs even within a State; this also allows scope for fake licenses. The Committee, therefore, has
116
Annexure IV
provided for the issue of a “unique” license number to every licensee and for arrangements to enable the present license holders to obtain a unique number within a specified time period. This scheme will enable the linking of the driving license with the UID number (ADHAAR).
3. Requirement of a driving license and eligibility for driving license.
Presently the law requires a driving license only for driving a vehicle in public place. The Committee has recommended that a driving license should be made mandatory for driving a vehicle at ‘any’ place in order to reduce vehicle related morbidity and mortality.
4. Validity of a License
Presently a license for driving a non-transport vehicle is valid for 20 years and for driving a transport vehicle for 3 years. An amendment to this Act has been suggested to enhance the validity of a licence to drive a non-transport vehicle till the holder attains the age of 50 and for renewal thereafter till he attains the age of 70 years on the basis of a medical certificate; subsequent renewals will be valid for 5 years each. In the case of transport vehicles the initial license will be valid for a period of 5 years and shall be renewable. The authorisation for driving a vehicle of a special category or use shall be for such period as may be prescribed.
5. The provisions for the grant of a learners’ license and a driving license are now separate. The Committee has suggested telescoping the provisions in order to avoid duplication of work and inconvenience to applicants without compromising road safety.
Chapter III: Licensing of Conductor of Stage Carriages The Committee was of the view that if conductors were necessary for stage carriages, they were equally necessary for contract carriages, which carry passengers over long inter-city distances, to ensure their safety and welfare. The Committee was of the view that detailed provisions in the Act were not necessary to regulate conductors and this could be left to the state government. Accordingly the Committee has proposed deletion of Chapter III and the introduction of a provision in Chapter V to enable state governments to prescribe rules in respect of conductors as required.
117
Annexure IV
Chapter IV: Registration of Motor Vehicles The Committee has suggested substantive changes to this Chapter in an attempt make it more streamlined and user friendly. Some of the major changes suggested are highlighted below: 1. Portability of Registration Number
Presently the owner of a vehicle is required to apply for a new number when he shifts his place of residence or place of business from one state to another. The Committee has suggested an amendment to introduce a scheme that would provide for ‘number portability’ and allow the original registration number to remain valid throughout the country. The Committee recommends that this provision should be implemented to begin with for non-transport vehicles and later for other categories. The Committee has also suggested simplification in the procedure for notifying and recording the change of address. However; penalty for not notifying change of address has been made more stringent.
2 Provision relating to hire purchase agreements.
The Committee has suggested that the provisions in the Act relating to hire purchase agreements be restricted to banks and finance companies registered with the RBI and that charges be levied for the provision of data, issue of certificates and other services rendered by the RTO to the banks and finance companies.
3 Fitness certificates and Validity of Registration Certificate.
Presently all non-transport vehicles are registered for a period of 15 years and do not require to obtain a fitness certificate till the end of 15 years. While the law presently does not provide for a period for registration of transport vehicles, registration is linked to fitness certificate which has to be obtained annually after two years of initial registration. The Committee suggests that non transport vehicle should also be required to obtain fitness certificates and revalidate their registration certificates at periodicities to be determined by the Government of India. The Committee recommends that from 2015 onwards all vehicles should renew their registration annually. The Committee recommends the empowerment of the Government of India to frame rules to provide for disposal of vehicles and components thereof when
118
Annexure IV
they cease to be road worthy in accordance with the recommendations made by the Habitat Mission of The National Action Plan on Climate Change.
Chapter V: Control of Transport Vehicles The Committee has attempted to simplify and streamline the provision of the chapter. There are many provisions in the Chapter which should ideally be in the CMVR because they deal with procedural matters relating to permit. Chapter VI: Special Provisions relating to State Transport Undertakings The Committee has suggested that the protection given to state transport undertakings should be withdrawn and the state governments enabled to use both the public sector and / or the private sectors to provide public transport. Accordingly, the Committee has recommended that the State Governments be empowered to draw up and implement schemes for providing public transport, including Para transit, within a city or between cities. The Committee has also suggested streamlining and simplification of the procedures for the issue of other permits. Chapter VII: Construction, Equipment and Maintenance of Motor Vehicles Amendments to this Chapter have been made to meet current and future technology changes and to empower the Government of India to set standards and procedures to protect the environment, ensure fuel efficiency and energy conservation and improve the performance of in-use vehicles. Chapter VIII Control of Traffic The Committee recommends that in the case of overloading the owner and the consigner should also be presumed to have committed the offence. This is necessary to stop overloading altogether and is in accordance with international best practices. The Committee has also suggested provisions to regulate the carriage of over dimensional equipments / goods, flying object etc. Further, the Committee has suggested that provisions relating to safety of all vehicle occupants be made more stringent. The Committee has also made suggestions for updating traffic and road signs from time to time and harmonizing them with international best practices.
119
Annexure IV
Chapter IX: Motor Vehicle temporarily leaving or visiting India No Change in provisions. Chapter X (Liability without fault in certain cases), Chapter XI (Insurance of Motor Vehicles against third party risks) & Chapter XII (Claims Tribunal) The Committee recommends that the above chapters be taken out of the Motor Vehicle Act and the provisions relating to vehicle insurance in the MVA be restricted to the following. Other matters relating to insurance of Motor Vehicles, payment of compensation to the accident victims and the procedure in this regard etc. should be incorporated into a separate Act more appropriately drawn up by the Ministry of Finance. Matters to be dealt with by the Motor Vehicle Act: i) Third Party Insurance for a motor vehicle shall be mandatory. “Third Party should be adequately defined. ii) The Certificate of Insurance should be co-terminus with the validity of Certificate of Registration of the motor vehicle. iii) The motor vehicle owner/driver shall produce the Certificate of Insurance for inspection to the police officer/enforcement authorities on demand. iv) Cash less medical treatment to the road accident victims during first 72 hours will be provided by the Insurance Companies. These recommendations could be formulated as under: Necessity for insurance against third party risk - A motor vehicle shall be insured as per a policy of insurance complying with the requirements of this Chapter. Provided that the certificate of insurance shall be valid till the validity of registration of the motor vehicle as may be prescribed by the Government from time to time. Provided further that in the case of a vehicle carrying, or meant to carry, dangerous or hazardous goods, there shall also be a policy of insurance under the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991. Explanation:- A person driving a motor vehicle merely as a paid employee, while there is in force in relation to the use of the vehicle no such policy as is required by this sub-section, shall not be deemed to act in contravention of the sub-section unless he knows or has reason to believe that there is no such policy in force.
120
Annexure IV
Definition of Third Party:-
“third party’ means any person other than the insured and the insurer, and includes the Government, the driver of the vehicle and the passengers travelling in it. Production of certificate of registration:-
The driver or conductor of a motor vehicle shall produce certificate of insurance on demand by any police officer in uniform or any other officer authorized by the State Government in this behalf, and if the certificate is not in his possession, he shall produce in person an extract or extracts of the documents duly attested by any police officer or by any other officer or send it to the officer who demanded the document by registered post within 15 days from the date of demand.
Cashless treatment to road accident victims:-
The Government may frame a scheme to provide cashless medical treatment to the road accident victims during first 72 hours by the insurance company.
The Committee makes the following recommendations which could be considered for incorporation in the proposed new Motor Vehicle Insurance Act:-
a) Definition of authorized insurer be modified to include all private player also, duly licensed by Insurance Regulatory Development Authority. Section 145 (a) b) The amount of compensation under “hit & run” cases and under the Structured Compensation Formula should be enhanced. Further there should be a provision to increase the amount of compensation based on the rising cost of living. Section 161 (3) (a), Section 163A
c) Provision should be made for an insurance policy to become void on the grounds of non-disclosure or misrepresentation or non-receipt of premium. Section 149 (1)
d) The insurer may be relieved from the liability in case the vehicle is driven by a person not having an effective driving licence or in case of non-receipt of premium. Section 149 (2)
e) The insurer may be allowed to contest the claim on any relevant ground including the quantum. New Provision
f) There should be a cap on the liability of insurers to pay compensation under the Structured Compensation Formula on “no fault principles”, of Rs. 10 lakhs and on fault principle of Rs. 20 lakhs. There should be a similar cap on the compensation to
121
Annexure IV be awarded by the MACTs. Claims beyond this amount should be adjudicated by Civil Courts. New provision
g) The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal (MACT) or Civil Court shall endeavor to dispose of a case within two years from the date of its filing, not to ordinarily grant adjournment unless sufficient cause and reasons of adjournment have been recorded in writing by the MACT or civil court. New provision h) There should be a time limit, say, 3 years for filing application from the occurrence of accident subject to general principles provided in the Limitations Act, 1963. New provision i) To enable the insurer to make an endeavour to settle the claims out of court/Tribunal directly with the claimant by mutual consent. New provision j) The rate of interest on the amount of compensation be linked to 200 basis points above the bank rate as notified by the Reserve Bank of India to introduce certainty and uniformity regarding the interest on amount payable as compensation. New provision k) Provision for interim compensation of Rs. 1,00,000/- in case of death or permanent total disablement and Rs. 50,000/- in case of permanent partial disablement, resulting from loss of a limb or sight of either eye or grievous hurt leading to such disablement. to the victim within three months from the date of filing of application New provision l) The Act may suitably provide for the adoption of the procedure for settlement of accident cases by MACT, as laid down by the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi and Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in the respective MACT Rules of the States. New provision Chapter XIII: Offences, Penalties and Procedure The provisions relating to offences, penalties and the procedure for levy of penalties were last prescribed in 1988 and have, over time, ceased to have any punitive effect. The Committee has reviewed and revised the provisions to make them punitive. The Committee has also made specific provisions to deal with offences like red light jumping, using mobile phones, not wearing helmets etc. which are currently covered under Section 177 which covers all violations of the Act that have not been specifically provided for. A large number of violations currently attract both imprisonment and fine. Experience has shown that imprisonment is seldom resorted to by the courts. The Committee has restricted the provision of imprisonment only to offences that endanger human life and property. Also, presently even offences that provide for imprisonment are compoundable under Section 200. The amendments
122
Annexure IV proposed do not enable offences which provide for imprisonment to be compounded. In the case of serious and repeated offences, the Committee has also prescribed the minimum period of imprisonment or fine that should be levied. In order to reduce the growing tendency to commit repeated violations of provisions of the Motor Vehicle Act the Committee has introduced a scheme for penalty points as is prevalent in other countries like Singapore, Brazil, and Australia etc. The scheme, which has been detailed in Schedule II of the proposed Act, will result in penalty points, as specified, being awarded and noted in the license for violations as specified and lead to suspension or cancellation of the license on accumulation of the prescribed number of points.
Chapter XIV: Miscellaneous Section 215 dealing with Road Safety Councils could be deleted in the context of the Bill to establish a National Road Safety and Traffic Management Board and Advisory Committees. Provision should be introduced to describe the Transport Development Council and its remit. Provisions for appeal against the orders of the relevant authorities are presently contained in different chapters. These provisions should be transferred to this chapter.

Annexure VI
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
1. Eligibility for driving license
Presently the law requires an applicant for a license to drive a transport vehicle to have passed the 8th standard and also to have held a valid driving license for driving a light motor vehicle for one year. The Committee recommends that with effect from 2015 the minimum educational qualification should be 10th standard pass. The requirement to hold a valid license for LMV for one year serves no purpose as there is no mechanism to verify whether the applicant has driven the LMV during the period or not. The provision only results in causing inconvenience to applicants. The Committee, therefore, recommends that the applicant should be required to hold a learner's license for a period of four months and obtain a competency certificate from a school or establishment recognized / accredited by the State Governments in accordance with rules prescribed by the Government of India.
2. Grant of driving licenses to foreign nationals
The Motor Vehicle Act provides for the grant of driving licenses to foreign nationals, who hold valid driving licenses issued by their authorities, without subjecting them to a driving test. Considering the fact that many foreign nationals come from countries with different driving practices, and the prevalent procedures in other countries for the grant of driving license to foreign nationals the Committee recommends that while foreign nationals may be permitted for the first year to drive on the basis of their existing driving licenses they should be required to undergo a driving test and obtain an Indian driving license from the second year onwards.
3 Driving schools – licensing / accreditation
A large number of accidents in the country are due to poorly trained drivers. The present system does not address this problem and in many cases licenses are issued to poorly trained drivers. Although the qualifications of the staff of driver training schools and their infrastructure have been laid down, there is no mechanism to check that these remain current over time. It is important for the Government to establish a mechanism to update the qualifications of the staff of driver training schools and their infrastructure and make rules for the periodic and surprise audit of the schools both by national level auditors and state level auditors. This could be done under the appropriate Sector Skills Council as mandated in the National Skills Policy 2009. Rules to accredit /
403
Annexure VI authorize certain select schools of excellence should empower them to issue competency certificates. Government may also consider out sourcing the conduct of driving tests to the driving schools of excellence while retaining the power to issue the driving license. The procedure for conducting a driving test should be automated to the extent possible and human interventions reduced as is the practice in many other countries.
4. Rules regarding conduct and working of conductor will be required to be prescribed in rule.
5. The Act requires that every vehicle should be roadworthy. There is, however, no provision for disposal of vehicle which have ceased to be road worthy. The Habitat mission of the National Action Plan on Climate Change requires rules to be drafted to recycle / dispose-off vehicles which are no longer road worthy. These rules need to be introduced.
6. Independent regulators
The Committee recommends the establishment of Independent Regulatory Authorities at the state level and also at the national level to promote the orderly growth of public transport. The functions of the state level regulator could be:
• To grant permits to operate stage carriages on specified routes according to the scheme drawn up by the State Government.
• To authorize the use of taxis / auto rickshaws as stage carriages on specified routes.
• To set fares for different types of stage carriages for different routes • To lay down operational standards and efficiency parameters. • To set quality of service standards. • To advise the State Governments on matters relating to public
transport. • To promote and maintain competition in the transport sector.
The functions of the national level regulators could be to:
• Oversee and regulate the issue of national permits • To resolve dispute between State Governments for inter-state
movement of passenger and good vehicles.
404
Annexure VI The regulatory authority could also be given recommendatory functions as in the case of other regulatory authorities to advise the Governments on schemes, route, route capacity etc.
These Regulatory Authorities on the lines of other infrastructure regulators should be autonomous. The Government may consider whether initially these regulatory functions can be given to the Electricity Regulatory Commission at the State and central level on the lines of the Public Utility Commissions in USA which regulate all the infrastructure sectors within the State.
7. Rationalisation of Taxes on Motor Vehicles
States levy motor vehicle tax under entry 54 of the Schedule 7 of the Constitution of India. This tax serves as a significant source of revenue to the states. Levy of Tax: Tax is leviable on all types of motor vehicles. Levy of tax is based mainly on the following two parameters;
(1) Life time or lump sum tax based on the Value or sale price of the vehicle;
(2) Annual tax depending on weight or passenger carrying capacity of the vehicle.
Most of the transport vehicles come under (2) above while LMV and two wheelers predominantly fall in category one. The tax revenue collected by the different states under these categories varies significantly. Levy of tax on motor vehicles is the prerogative of State Governments; hence there are state level variations of rates which cause distortion in the market. If tax rate is lower in a state, vehicles tend to get registered there and are moved to other states later on. This results in loss of revenue to some states. Looking to the need to promote a national market and facilitate movement of vehicles across the states, there is a need to rationalize the tax structure and evolve consensus among states for fixing a floor rate of tax. This will prevent ' race-to-the-bottom' as far as the tax rate and will boost tax revenue of most of the states. To evolve the common tax rate strategy, two key strategies may be suggested on following lines:
LMV & Two wheelers Presently, about 75% of the vehicles sold and registered fall under this category. The sale of LMV and two wheelers is increasing rapidly leading to an increase in the revenue of the states. After registering, two wheelers are hardly moved out of a state except in border areas whereas four wheelers are
405
Annexure VI increasingly moving across the borders of state on account of mobility, for reasons of employment or education. Currently, if a vehicle is permanently moved out of a state and taken to another state, the registration number of the vehicle is required to be changed and taxes in the new states are required to be paid while seeking refund from the previous State. The mechanism to get refund in the previous State is cumbersome and non-transparent. There are also reports that some unscrupulous elements particularly dealing in the luxury car segment get their vehicles registered in a State where the tax is levied at low rate and subsequently move the vehicle to state of their residence. In order to avoid these problems and make it possible for number portability, which the Committee has separately recommended, the Committee suggests: (1) Floor rate of tax on these vehicles be pegged at a fixed percentage in
all the States and Union Territories. (2) Tax may be levied on the basis of sale price of the vehicle eliminating
all other bases linking it directly to the VAT. (3) Tax may be collected as lump-sum tax in all the States on the basis of
criterion mentioned above till 2015 and preferably annually thereafter. (4) Vehicle moving from one State to another after a period of two years
of registration may be exempted from State tax in the new State obviating need for refund and subsequent payment of tax in the new State. This provision will become redundant once annual tax payment comes in force.
Transport Vehicles As in the case of non-transport vehicles the taxes levied on transport vehicles vary across the States. These vehicles are required to pay the National Permit fees in addition to the basic tax in a State which is normally charged on an annual basis depending on the capacity of the vehicle. If a State has very low tax rate compared to the neighboring State, naturally there will be a tendency of the transporters to get their vehicles registered in that state and operate on National Permit in other states. In such a situation basic purpose of the National Permit is defeated and a state which has higher rate of tax tends to loose the tax revenue. Similarly the reciprocal arrangement between two states becomes skewed when the basic tax rate between neighboring states differ considerably. Therefore, it is suggested that; (1) Uniform floor rate of tax on these vehicles should be fixed in all the
States and Union Territories. (2) the basis of tax may be on the seating capacity or load carrying
capacity of the vehicle as appropriate; (3) tax be levied on an annual basis whereas the facility of payments may
be given on quarterly basis.
406
Annexure VI
In case of passenger vehicles, a similar approach can be adopted to facilitate growth of domestic tourism and mobility within the country. For this purpose, a meeting of State Finance Ministers/Transport Ministers may be convened and appropriate decision be taken as was done in case of Value Added Tax on the basis of consensus. Meanwhile, rationalization of rates in Union Territories may be taken up immediately.
8. Several of the Committee’s recommendations can become operational and effective only when electronic databases of driving licenses, vehicle registrations, permits, penalty points etc. are established in every State and linked to one another. The Committee was informed that this activity is already under way through the NIC. The Committee strongly recommends that this activity should be completed at the earliest and the existing database should be transferred to the new database on a priority basis.
9. The Committee also recommends that the tests for issue and renewal of driving licenses, grant of fitness certificate, grant of competency certificate and authorisation should be automated to the maximum extent possible and human intervention reduced. The Government of India should provide both technical and financial assistance to the states to enable this to happen.
