Explanation:
Underage driving is a serious problem in India. Many children become victim everyday owing to this menace. According to Road Accident Statistics India 1214 road crashes occur every day in India. 20 children under the age of 14 die every day due to road crashes in the country. One serious road accident in the country occurs every minute and 16 people die on Indian roads every hour.
In most of the accidents involving children, it has been found children don’t have road safety sense. Nor do they follow safety rules and regulations. In a majority of cases and incidents children don’t wear helmets. They fall prey to over-speeding.
It is the duty of the elders and the Government to provide safe environment to the growing children. Parents must not allow the minor children to drive motorcycles, scooters, or cars. Though the Government has passed and implemented the Juvenile Driving Act, according to which the guardian /owner shall be deemed to be guilty in cases of offences by the juveniles and juvenile shall be tried under JJ act.

hey dude u r challenge accepted ☺
Just three days ago, two Class XII students on a high-end bike were caught under the wheels of a container lorry and crushed to death instantaneously on the Ennore Express Highway.
M. Abhishek of Vysarpadi was riding the bike back home, after finishing the board exams at his school in north Chennai. P. Raj was riding pillion.
Crashing into the lorry, the duo was thrown off and came under the wheels of the vehicle, and died on the spot.
Traffic Investigation Officer Chitra said, “The parents told us that the boys did not pay heed to their words. At least the school could have prevented them from driving the vehicle to the school premises. The accident could have been prevented.”
On March 4, a 17-year-old boy, who was riding a high-end bike, knocked down senior citizen who was walking in Tiruninravur, resulting in his death.
On January 12, a 16-year-old boy who took his father’s bike hit a 61-year-old woman in Tirumangalam. She was badly injured.
Now the police are banking on “embarrassing parents/guardians” as a tool to check underage driving. They have started booking the parents of children found driving.
However, this does not seem to be working either as minors continue to drive, especially in places like North-East, West and North Delhi.
With most Delhiites possessing more than one vehicle, including cars and two wheelers, there is a huge chance of children taking up driving at a young age.
Many parents do not have a problem with it, as it comes in handy for meeting routine needs and in case of an emergency. This, according to them, is a situation when someone at home is unwell and needs to be driven to the hospital or is late for their train or a flight.
The law clearly does not permit driving by those under 18 years in any case, even if it is an emergency.
Having tried everything they could, the Traffic Police now believe that only if the parents stop giving vehicles to children before they turn 18 can the menace of underage driving be curbed.
“The issue is that youngsters are driven by impulse and tend to drive fast or get into impromptu racing with each others.
