Some of the basic traffic rules for two-wheeler riders in India are as below:

• Helmets should be worn always while riding
• Indicators should be used by all riders
• Pillion riders cannot be more than one
• The rider should focus on the road all the time
• Usage of rearview mirrors is mandatory
• When pulling over, do so carefully

The central government previously failed to take the necessary steps however it has decided to crackdown on traffic offenses right now. This, they are doing by making the law and its subsequent punishment a lot more stricter.
