Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 26 January 2011 This query is : Resolved 
if a minor person riding a car in the road and caught by traffic police than what is the maximum punishment for him.
Arvind Singh Chauhan (Expert) 26 January 2011
According to MV Act Sec 181 - Rs 500. But it also depends on the sections mentioned on police report and the state amendments.
SANJAY GUPTA (Expert) 26 January 2011
if a minor caught driving car it will come under the M.V.Act as stated by Mr.Arving and it deals mostly with fine.

I do agree with experts.
adv. rajeev ( rajoo ) (Expert) 27 January 2011
Yes I do also agree with the learned experts.
Gulshan Tanwar (Expert) 27 January 2011
The Owner of the Car as well as the parents/ guardians of the said Minor are liable for the same and they will go behind bars under simple imprisonment alongwith the fine.

This is MV Act and Minor cannot be sent behind bars except for two situations ---
1. When the punishment is for life;
2. When the punishment is for RI.

and if the Minor is taken behind bars then lodge a writ petition against the State seeking compensation for the violation of the Laws regarding Minors as mentioned in JJ Act.

If the minor is of age below 18 provisions of Juvenile Justice(care and protection of children) Act 2000 will apply and will bw dealt with accordingly.
