Shimla Traffic Fines 2026: Himachal Pradesh Hikes Penalties up to INR 15,000 for Driving on Restricted Roads, Imprisonment Provisions Added

The Himachal Pradesh government has overhauled its traffic penalty framework for the state capital, with the Governor giving assent to an amendment bill passed during the Budget Session of the Vidhan Sabha

Under the revised provisions, driving on restricted or sealed roads without a valid pass now attracts a fine of up to INR 10,000. Violations involving prohibited roads carry a penalty of INR 5,000. Both represent a sharp increase from the earlier uniform fine of INR 3,000. For serious offences, the maximum penalty has been raised from INR 2,500 to INR 15,000.

Foxglove Plant. Not very common to see in the area, they are not wild and have to be planted. Ours got damaged thanks to the hailstorms but hopefully they will be back out soon!

New Lows being achieved already by tourists this year. Pissing on Mall Road, right next to the lake.

Even more hail today, even stronger than yesterday. Whatever number of fruits trees that survived would have probably got damaged today. Very sad.

The incident occurred on Friday near Tavi Mod in Shimla when the policeman, who was on duty instructed Ashish Kumar, a local taxi driver, to remove his vehicles parked on the roadside.

However, Kumar told him that as he was alone, he could remove only one vehicle at a time — either his car or his bike. This irritated the cop, who then warned him of a challan, leading to an argument between the two.

As the ASI proceeded to issue a challan, Kumar started recording a video on his mobile phone, alleging that the policeman was misbehaving with him. The situation escalated when Kumar tried to capture the ASI’s nameplate in the video, during which the officer kicked him.
