Centre to impose 40 kmph speed limit for motorcycles with child pillion rider

With an to ensure safety measures for child passengers, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH) has proposed that the speed of a motorcycle, with a child up to age four years being carried as a pillion, shall not be more than 40 kmph.

The ministry in a draft notification has also proposed that the driver shall ensure that the child pillion passenger, aged between nine months and four years, must wear a crash helmet.

The ministry further said that the driver of a motorcycle shall ensure that for children below four years, safety harness shall be used for attaching the child to the driver of the motorcycle. A safety harness is a vest to be worn by the child, which shall be adjustable, with a pair of straps attached to the vest and forming shoulder loops to be worn by the driver. This way, the upper torso of the child is securely attached to the driver.

The protective gear including safety harness has to be lightweight, adjustable, waterproof and durable, according to the draft notification. This must be made of heavy nylon or multi filament nylon material with high-density foam and should be designed to hold weight up to 30 kg.

The MORTH has also asked for objections and suggestions to these draft rules, if any. Centre considers imposing 40 kmph speed limit for motorcycles with child pillion rider.
