Courts to send intimation about conviction

AI Assist

Summary

When a court convicts a person who holds a driving license for an offence under this Act or for an offence in which a motor vehicle was used, the court must notify the licensing authority that issued the license and the authority that last renewed it. The intimation must give the holder's name and address, license number, issue and renewal dates, the nature of the offence, the punishment awarded, and any other prescribed particulars. This ensures licensing records can be updated and appropriate action taken.

Example

Ravi is convicted for an offence where his car was used. The court sends an intimation to the authority that issued his driving license and the one that last renewed it, listing his name, address, license number, issue and renewal dates, the nature of the offence and the punishment awarded.

Bare Act

Enacted text

Every Court by which any person holding a driving license is convicted of an offence under this Act or of an offence in the commission of which a motor vehicle was used, shall send intimation to—

  • (a) the licensing authority which issued the driving license, and

  • (b) the licensing authority by whom the license was last renewed, and every such intimation shall state the name and address of the holder of the license, the license number, the date of issue and renewal of the same, the nature of the offence, the punishment awarded for the same and such other particulars as may be prescribed.
