BHPian tc89 recently shared this with other enthusiasts:
I opened the Acko app for checking some details on my CB300R and discovered that there are 2 traffic violation fines on the vehicle on opening the violation images I was laughing they had fined a white coloured Access 125 with the same number as mine but the difference was my number plate has the letters KA03 KY and the access was a KA03 KV.
However I wasn’t paying ₹1000 for a fine for somebody else and that too for an error by the traffic police, i was looking to go to the Indian express traffic center to get this corrected but was also looking for a simpler means (read online), Vaahan portal had a section specially for this and as expected it didn’t work !!
A few days later I happened to approach a traffic constable lounging leisurely near Shantinagar bus stop and asked him advice on what to do
He shared the following 2 email addresses.
bangloretrafficpolice@gmail.com and
automationpubbcp@ksp.gov.in and was confident one of them would surely reply.
So i wrote the following email with a picture of my number plate and a few days later the fines were removed, note particularly the conciseness of the email and the response as well.
Frankly I was just shooting an arrow in the dark but I seemed to have hit my mark.
Thanks to the Bangalore Traffic Police team as well!!
