Good to know about Karnataka

Vehicles registered in Karnataka carry number plates starting with KA, followed by the RTO code of the district (for example KA 01). The state capital is Bengaluru. Rules of the road are the same across India because they come from the Motor Vehicles Act 1988 and the Motor Vehicles (Driving) Regulations 2017, which is what this site teaches.
