History

Historical Context

India’s road-safety framework stems from the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988, which took effect on 1 July 1989 and replaced earlier 1914 and 1939 statutes, mandating third-party insurance and detailed penalties for offences. The Act provides the legal basis for the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways and Delhi Police to investigate hit-and-run crashes such as the recent Maruti Suzuki Ciaz and Mahindra Thar incidents in Gurugram.
