Road safety is something we hardly give importance to despite the number of lives we lose in road accidents on a daily basis.

It's not the law enforcers alone who is responsible for the safety of road users. Each one of us should care for each other's lives.

But quite often, generation Z choose the adrenaline rush they get from performing stunts on the road, rather than their own safety.

In Bengaluru for instance, a man was recently spotted riding a bike with his girlfriend on his lap. The viideo footage of the stunt was posted by the Bengaluru traffic police on platform X. The incident happened on May 17 on the Bengaluru International Airport road.

Hebbal traffic police have arrested the man based on the video.

The traffic police have put out a message saying, "Hey thrill-seekers, the road isn't a stage for stunts! Keep it safe for everyone, including yourselves. Let's ride responsibly."
