According to the recently ammended Motor Vehicle Act, violators will have to pay a fine of Rs 10,000 for not giving way to an ambulance or other emergency vehicles.

Earlier this year, during the Puri Rath Yatra, devotees were seen showing a similar gesture by creating a corridor-pathway for a medical van.
