History

Historical Context

The 2009 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Arizona v. Gant limited warrantless vehicle searches, showing how high courts can reshape enforcement practices. Similar judicial influence appears in India’s ongoing road-safety efforts, where recent incidents in Gurgaon highlight gaps in helmet compliance. The Court still reviews about 7,000 petitions each year, reflecting its broad policy impact.
