Mumbai reported only 35 drunk driving cases on New Year’s Eve 2020
According to Mumbai Police data, a total of 4,056 traffic violations were registered on New Year’s Eve 2020. January 02, 2021 / 05:00 PM IST
One of the reasons behind the strikingly low number of drunk driving cases could be that police decided to avoid using breath analyzers due to the ongoing pandemic.
The Mumbai Traffic Police booked only 35 drunk drivers on New Year’s Eve 2020, as most revelers kept off the streets due to the ongoing pandemic. Most of the apprehended motorists were on two-wheelers.
Yashasvi Yadav, Joint Commissioner of Police (Traffic), said: “Of these 35 violators, all men, 26 violators were bikers, one auto rickshaw driver and eight drivers of four-wheeler.” Fifteen of these vehicles were impounded by the police, while the other 20 were released.
Motorist undergoes breathalyzer test in Thane
MUMBAI/ THANE/ NAVI MUMBAI: The pandemic and night curfew reduced the number of drunk driving cases on New Year s Eve to a trickle. Across Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), 521 motorists were booked for getting behind the wheel inebriated, including 35 in Mumbai, the lowest figure recorded in the city on the last day of the year since 2017.
While the traffic police in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai decided not to use breathalyzers in view of the Covid-19 situation, Thane traffic police went ahead, dressing up their personnel in PPE kits and changing the nozzles of breathalyzers after every use. This could have been one of the reasons why Thane recorded the highest number of drunk drivers (416) between Thursday night and early on Friday, while Mumbai had mere 35 cases and Navi Mumbai 27. In contrast, 3,037 motorists were booked for drunk driving on December 31, 2019, across MMR, when breathalyzers were commonplace.
