Mumbai Traffic Police Fines

Yesterday near the Malad Subway I parked my car on the road side in front of the Sweet shop to buy some sweets. I had left my parking lights on and we were out buying our stuff in 15 mins. After couple of hours I got a message that I have been fined 1500Rs for causing road blocks basically a no parking fine.

This has really got to my nerves, first the whole Mumbai roads are dug up and then you are made to pay such hefty fines for 15 mins of wrong parking. Owning a car in Mumbai has become an hassle. Traffic Jams, parking problems.

Rickshaw seems to be the best option for travelling but you have to bear with the auto walas attitude of saying no to you 5 times before getting your ride.
