Drunk driving cases on rise in city, 2,502 held since Jan

Following the Pune Porsche crash case, new data from the Mumbai traffic police (MTP) show that more than 2,502 people have been held since January for driving under the influence of alcohol, which is a criminal offence. While 74 minors were caught driving without a valid licence.

The Mumbai police, along with the MTP are being extra vigilant after the Pune Porche incident, which occurred on May 19, where a teenage son of a wealthy and influential realtor allegedly at the wheel of a speeding car, killed two young IT professionals, who were on a two-wheeler. Reports suggest that the teen was drunk, yet the Juvenile Justice Board granted him bail.
