In Hyderabad, a 30-year-old doctor was apprehended for allegedly driving under the influence on April 10. During a routine check in Jubilee Hills, police discovered that he was using a flip number plate system that displayed two different registration numbers—one from Delhi and another from Telangana. The vehicle was initially registered in Delhi, and the doctor had not updated its registration after moving. The flip number plate system, which he purchased and installed two years ago, allowed him to switch between the two plates. Authorities suspect that the doctor employed this tactic to evade road tax. A case has been filed against him for impersonation, cheating, and violations under the Motor Vehicles Act for drunk driving. Further investigations will include questioning the technician who installed the system.
