[Resolved] Rto, Mumbai — meter tampered of autorickshaw | |||
I live in 1601, Orchid Tower, Lokhandwala Township, Kanivali East and work in Ville Parle. On 29/12/2010, While on my way back from office, I hired an autorickshaw, auto no MHO3M7446, from Ville Prale to Kanivali East. His meter was running very fast and on reaching home it came as Rs 130/- against Rs 115/116 which is an eveyday meter charges from office to home. When I raised this issue the auto driver started fighting with me and told me, you can file any compalint to who soever you want, I dont care. His behaviour was extremely rude. To avoid a scene I made the payment but called up no 100 for help . They were kind enough to guide me after 5-6 calls to them. They told me -" Madam we can send the police if you want but cant help you with lodging of compalint". Still I was given two supposedly helpline numbers, by them -[protected], and [protected].Both the numbers were dyfunct. My submission is - firstly the auto driver should be reprimanded for tampering the meter and secondly misbeving with a passenger. My third submission is why we common people have to suffer- why the helpline doesnt work and why there is no internal networking with various departments. I wonder whether I will be heard or this will just remain as blog? Smita Verma Was this information helpful? | |||

Correction autorickshaw no MH03 AK 5454.
In fact each and every auto driver has his meter tampered to the extent of 20 - 30 paise per rupee i.e. 20-30%. In addition, they have different pressure of air pumped to the rear tyres - which further assists in faulty running of the meter...
And the justification they give is that all autos are running with faulty meters then why should I keep my meter perfect?
And all auto drivers try to stand at a signal - this is when the meter starts flying instead of just running.
I know one thing for sure that this website is only a place where we consumers can write our frustrations with a guarantee that nothing at all will ever be done...
The Government and RTO is filled with totally corrupt officials who will not take any action...

Iam a frequent air traveler and as always i catch a rickshaw from The Domestic Airport to Kalina.
The Reading Always comes to 3.5 or 3.7 but today after a long time the rickshaw meter read 4.3.

RTO — Tampering of meters
Autorickshaw with tampered meter. No MH 03 5454. I agree with most of the complainants whether anything will be done since the RTO itself is hand-in glove with these crooks. God help this land of lawlessness.
