Dear Sirs,

Suggestion for The Road Transport and Safety Bill

I thank Govt of India for inviting suggestion from public on above bill. I am not expert on this subject, but I am end-user of vehicle. My humble suggestions are:

1. The fine and penalties suggested in draft bill will only encourage corruption and litigation which in turn will congest courts/tribunals. Fines and penalties need to be reduced, at least till corruption is moderated in governance.

2. At present when a vehicle is sold by owner, he submits RTO forms to buyer with original RC book and Insurance policy etc. I have experienced that many a time the buyer does not get vehicle transferred in his name in RTO and hence seller continues with liability of vehicle with him in case of misuse or accident etc. The buyer does not care for reminders from seller and uses vehicle at the risk of seller. This needs to be addressed in draft bill, so that vehicle gets transferred in the name of buyer on seller submitting prescribed papers to proposed authority.
Thanking you,
