SC: LMV licence can be used to drive transport vehicles
The Supreme Court has simplified driving license regulations, stating that a license for light motor vehicles (LMVs) is sufficient to drive transport vehicles weighing under 7,500 kg. This ruling clarifies a long-standing ambiguity and prevents insurance companies from denying compensation on technical grounds. The court acknowledged the need for comprehensive amendments to the Motor Vehicles Act to address evolving transportation technologies and licensing requirements.
