Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of its previous judgment regarding the implementation of safety norms for transport vehicles under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, specifically Section 88(5). The Court reaffirmed that compliance with speed control device regulations is mandatory for heavy and medium transport vehicles operating in the NCR and NCT, Delhi, as per its earlier directives issued under Article 32 and Article 142 of the Constitution. The appeals were dismissed, upholding the High Court's decisions that confirmed the necessity of these safety measures.
