Delhi Underage Driving Challans Drop Nearly 68% This Year
The number of tickets given to kids driving in Delhi has gone way down this year!
Police are giving out fewer tickets for underage driving, dropping by almost 70%.
This is because they're watching more closely and teaching kids and parents about traffic rules.
When kids drive, it's usually their parents or the car owners who get in trouble and have to pay fines.
Fewer cars are being taken away from drivers, too.
The police are working hard to make roads safer for everyone.
