Dinesh Madan’s reaction after the fine
Dinesh Madan, after being hit with the hefty fine, said that “Value of my scooty is around 15,000. I even got a copy of the registration certificate (RC) on WhatsApp from home but by then he had printed. The amount could have been less if he had waited for a while. I want that fine should be relaxed. From now on I will always carry my documents.”

Some questioned the local Municipal Corporations over the pothole situation
@nitin_gadkari Biker fined Rs 23,000 in #Gurugram ,What's the fine for those Corporations/Municipality officials for roads which are full of pot holes? What's fine for contractors who build such roads? What's Fine for engineers who approves such roads? #MotorVehiclesAct2019 pic.twitter.com/ES969xt3r7

A few of the citizens supported the move by the government and called for stricter laws for safety.
I believe every state government should implement the motor Vehicles amendment act as it will save lives. I heard a motorist saying “ I have a kids & won’t have the money to pay the fine. My question “ why commit the misdemeanor? #TrafficRules #MotorVehiclesAct2019

Other netizens defended the tweets calling out the pothole situation and raised safety questions.
I agree india does not have the best roads in the world but what has that to do with someone speeding, jumping red light, drunk driving or driving from the wrong side of the road? #MotorVehiclesAct2019 https://t.co/s1Cpe2Ro5R
