Claim: Court has rejected inspection of helmet usage in all states. Now it is not mandatory to wear a helmet within 15 kms of a municipal corporation.
Fact-check: No court judgement has been pronounced relaxing the rule of wearing helmets - FACTLY
Verdict: pib through a tweet confirmed that the news about court relaxing the rule to wear the helmet is fake. also, their tweet has categorically stated that the drivers are still required to wear helmets. we did not find any court judgment relaxing the rule to wear a helmet. in the motor vehicles  act 2019, it is nowhere mentioned that usage of the helmet is exempted within the limits of a municipal corporation. hence the claim made in the post is false.
