Nowadays everyone can easily reach their destination with the help of Google Map. People prefer to use Google Maps. But using Google Maps while carrying a mobile while driving can lighten your pockets.

If you do not have a mobile holder on the dashboard in your car and use Google Maps with a mobile in hand, there is a penalty of up to Rs 5,000.

Recently, a case came to light in which a person was challaned by the police. The driver questioned why he was fined if he did not talk to anyone on his mobile. Delhi Police said it was against the traffic rules to use Google Maps without a mobile holder on the dashboard or in the hand. This is because doing so can lead to distractions in the driveway. This case falls into the category of reckless driving.

This means that if you use Google Maps while driving and you have fitted a mobile holder for it, it is not a violation of the rules to use Google Maps by calling the mobile holder.
