(Representative Image) In a rare move, a 55-year-old man in Andhra Pradesh’s Kakinada district approached police to check whether any traffic challans were pending against the vehicles of his prospective son-in-law before finalising his daughter’s marriage. Police said the man wanted to assess the future groom’s sense of responsibility and driving behaviour through his record on the road instead of relying only on conventional background checks.
Calling the request thoughtful and unusual, an official said the man believed a person’s conduct while driving reflects his overall character and discipline. “The man wanted to know whether the prospective groom had been involved in cases such as rash driving, drunken driving or repeated traffic violations. We appreciated his sense of responsibility," the official told PTI. According to police, the man lost his wife several years ago and single-handedly raised his daughter, educating her to become an engineer despite hardships. Recently, after finding a suitable alliance for his daughter, he approached the Rayudupalem Traffic Police on Tuesday with the registration numbers of a car and a two-wheeler belonging to the prospective groom.
Police said the man believed a person’s driving behaviour often reflected discipline, patience and social responsibility, prompting him to enquire about the challan history before finalising the marriage. After verification, police found no pending challans or serious traffic violations linked to the vehicles. The official said he was pleasantly surprised by the unusual request and praised the man for adopting a responsible and practical approach while searching for a groom for his daughter.
