STAY INSIDE THE VEHICLE — SUNROOF MISUSE IS PUNISHABLE

Sunroof is NOT for standing, sitting or travelling outside the vehicle. It is designed for ventilation—not for unsafe behaviour.

Misuse of sunroof puts lives at risk and attracts legal action for dangerous driving under the Motor Vehicle Act, punishable with imprisonment from 6 months to 1 year, fine from ₹1,000 to ₹5,000, or with both, along with suspension of DL for 3 months.

A challan was issued against a vehicle found with occupants misusing the sunroof by protruding outside while the vehicle was in motion.

🚫 KEEP MARINA PARK SAFE — NO ENTRY FOR VEHICLES 🚸🌳

To prevent violations, A&N Traffic Police has installed barricades at the entrance (Girls’ School side), and the area will be under continuous monitoring.

⚠️ Strict legal action will be taken against violators.

Sirens are not just sounds on the road-they are a call for hope, urgency, and life.

When an ambulance is trying to pass through traffic, someone inside may be fighting for every breath, every heartbeat, every second. Your small act of moving aside can become someone’s second chance at life.

✅ Stay calm
✅ Give way immediately
✅ Do not block or follow the ambulance

A few seconds of patience from you can mean a lifetime for someone else.
The Andaman & Nicobar Police urges all commuters to drive responsibly and show humanity on the roads.
