MV Act | Light Motor Vehicles License Sufficient For Driving Transport Vehicles Below 7500 Kgs, No Separate License Needed: Rajasthan High Court

The Rajasthan High Court ruled that a driver holding a license for light motor vehicles (LMVs) can legally drive a transport vehicle that weighs below 7,500 kg. This decision stems from interpreting the Motor Vehicles Act, which does not differentiate between private and transport LMVs concerning the weight limit. The court clarified that the licensing requirements apply equally to both categories, emphasizing the act's objective to simplify legal norms for drivers operating within the stipulated weight limits, thus preventing unnecessary legal complications.
