The drive against auto drivers by Mumbai traffic police continued on day four with around 500 auto drivers being fined for violating traffic norms in the eastern suburbs from Kurla to Mulund, after the situation at Bandra East and Kurla saw some improvement over the last three days.

The drive that began from Kurla West went up to Vidyavihar,  Ghatkopar, Bhandup and Mulund railway stations. In the BKC division, 150 drivers were fined on Thursday. The traffic cops are now taking the drive a step ahead by not only issuing challans but also conducting awareness programmes with auto drivers and their owners to sensitise them regarding passenger safety and traffic regulations.
