The Cyberabad Police Commissioner issued a notification on 23.05.2017 stipulating maximum speed limit on Outer Ring Road(express way) to 100 kms/hour. Recently the transport department of Union Government issued a Notification No. S.O.1522E, dated 06/04/2018, in which the union government enhanced the maximum speed limit to 120 kms/hour on express ways, applicable for all over India.
Two weeks ago I have driven my car on ORR(express way) below the speed of 110 kms/hour which was observed by the traffic police by speed gun. Though the Union Government notification permits 120 kilometers speed, the Traffic police issued me a Echallan for Rs.1000/- fine for over speeding, even I have driven the car below 110 kms/hour.
So kindly suggest me what to do. whether old notification of police commissioner of hyderabad overcomes the recent Union government's notification on the same subject ?
