Penalty for my vehicle caused by freind

Dear Sir,
It is a petty issue and you are lucky to get it a portion of fine amount from the rider of the two wheeler. The pillion rider is not suppose to share in the fine amount since you have allowed voluntary to use your vehicle at your risk.

Dear Client,
it sounds like you are dealing with a dispute over a traffic penalty that was incurred while your friends were using your bike. Here are the steps you can take to address this issue:
Steps to Address the Dispute
Attempt Mediation:
Have a calm and clear conversation with both friends. Explain the financial burden the penalty has caused you and request the friend who has not paid to contribute his fair share.
Send a Formal Demand Letter:
Draft a formal demand letter to the friend who refused to pay. Outline the details of the incident, the penalty amount, and the contribution made by the other friend. Request the outstanding amount politely but firmly, and set a reasonable deadline for payment.
Legal Options:
If mediation and the formal demand letter do not work, you can consider small claims court. Here’s how you can proceed:
Consult a Lawyer: Seek advice from a lawyer to understand the feasibility of pursuing a small claims case.
File a Claim: Prepare to file a claim in the small claims court. Gather all evidence related to the incident, such as the penalty notice, communication with your friends, and any witnesses who can support your claim.
Court Process: Present your case before the court. Explain the situation, how the penalty was incurred, and the contributions made by each friend. The court can then decide on the matter.
Relevant Legal Considerations in India
Indian Contract Act, 1872: This act can be relevant if there was an implied agreement between you and your friends regarding the use of your bike and sharing of liabilities. Although verbal agreements can be difficult to enforce, a clear understanding or acknowledgment of responsibility can be helpful.
Consumer Protection Act, 2019: This act may not directly apply, but it emphasizes the protection of consumer rights, including fair treatment in financial transactions. You can argue that you are seeking fair treatment in sharing the penalty cost.
