HC upholds two-wheeler ban on expressways, cites safety concerns
The Morning Standard
|November 14, 2024
IN a recent decision, the Delhi High Court declined two petitions requesting permission for two-wheelers to access all national highways and expressways, reinforcing the safety rationale behind restricting these vehicles from high-speed roads.
Chief Justice Manmohan and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela upheld a 2018 notification from the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) that prohibits two-wheelers on access-controlled expressways.
The first petition was a public interest litigation (PIL) filed by Gautam Kumar Laha, who sought to nullify the NHAI's notification and the ₹20,000 penalty imposed on motorcyclists who violate the ban.
