82-year-old gets licence to drive

In Mumbai City there is no upper age limit for procuring a driving licence, though the minimum age is 18. Recently one 82 years old man Lekhraj Sharma gave a driving test at the Andheri RTO & got a licence to drive. The officials were skeptical on noticing that he was 82 years old, but his physical agility and mature driving skills won them over. "I don't plan to take the car out on busy roads and there is no question of me being drunk at the wheel," says Sharma.

The city's three RTO offices are coming across more cases like Sharma's.

"The number of elders obtaining driving licences may be 1 to 2% of the total number of licence-seekers, but it is a significant number considering that earlier we never had them coming to us," says an RTO official at Tardeo.Read more..............82-year-old gets licence to drive

'Drunk' driver manages Delhi's traffic

Can a person convicted for drunken driving assist police in managing the Delhi's traffic? Yes, a court in New Delhi has been sentenced to assist the police in managing the Delhi's traffic for 10 days. On Sunday, he donned the mantle of a traffic cop even as legal experts questioned the legality of the court ruling.

"Deepak Gupta", a resident of south Delhi, was convicted on June 4 by Metropolitan Magistrate Gautam Manan for driving in an inebriated state without license in Mayapuri in west Delhi on Feb 16.

On Sunday, Gupta reached the Kalkaji roundabout at 10 a.m. and sought the day's assignment from the traffic cops present there.

A couple of hours later, after successfully flagging down quite a few red light offenders, Gupta told reporters that he felt sorry that he had violated traffic rules and realizes how difficult it is to manage traffic.

Constitutional expert and senior Supreme Court advocate P.P. Rao said: 'The novel judgment on punishment has left me wondering if we are heading to a system of 'quasi justice'.'

'A court is not al all empowered to impose such discretionary sentences which have not been provided by the parliament or legislature in the relevant laws. This would lead to courts resorting to unguided discretion in imposing sentences and it would mitigate the rule of law,' said Rao.

'On the face of it, the sentence is illegal. No court is empowered to impose a punishment which is not prescribed by the legislature,' added Kumar.

Delhi Police too appeared baffled by the sentencing of the court.

Drunk Groom Loses Bride to Brother

Bachelors who are going to get married need to take a lesson from this groom who lost his bride to his brother as he was too drunk at the time of his marriage. So if you are going to get married, do stay away from booze, otherwise someone else shall be the husband of your wanna be bride.

An incident happened in Arwal district in Bihar state of India when Villagers at a wedding decided the groom had arrived too drunk to get married, and so the bride married the groom's more sober brother instead, police said on Monday.

"The groom was drunk and had reportedly misbehaved with guests when the bride's family and local villagers chased him away," as per the Madho Singh, a senior police officer over there.

The younger brother readily agreed to take the groom's place beside the teenage bride at her family's invitation, witnesses said.

"The groom apologized for his behavior, but has been crying that word will spread and he will never get a bride again," Singh said.
