Criminal cases are registered against those caught driving under the influence of alcohol for the second time. Besides doing so, they warned that they will be recommended to cancel their licenses.
He said that if police cases are registered, job and employment opportunities will not be available and passports will not be available. He said that most of the road accidents are due to rash driving, triple riding and driving under the influence of alcohol.
Subbarayudu clarified that cases will be registered under IPC sections as well as MV Act cases against parents and vehicle owners who give vehicles to minors. Parents should think twice while giving vehicles to minors.
