The Haryana government today directed Regional Transport Authorities (RTAs) in the state to act against the use of loud speakers or multi-toned horns by vehicle owners who seek to display their 'VIP' status, an official said today.
It was observed that after the ban on the use of beacons, many people began using loud speakers or multi-toned horns atop their vehicles seeking to exhibit 'VIP' status, he said.
The government has directed the secretaries of RTAs to act against drivers using loud speakers or multi-toned horns in violation of the provisions of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989, a Transport Department spokesman said.
Under no circumstances, a circumvention of the order relating to the removal of beacon lights should be allowed to be violated, he said.
The use of loud speakers or multi-toned horns not only causes noise pollution but also puts general public to inconvenience, he added.
