# Speeding Challan in India — Fine Amounts & How to Pay
Over-speeding is the single largest cause of road fatalities in India and one of the top violations caught by camera. Fines range from ₹1,000 to ₹4,000 depending on vehicle type and how much over the limit you were going.

How Speed Cameras Work
India uses three types:
1. Fixed radar cameras — detect speed at a fixed point
2. ANPR with average speed — two cameras at distance, calculate average speed
3. Mobile radar guns — carried by traffic police in vehicles
