Mira Shelar said, "The rickshaw drivers are only interested in plying long distance fares. Just last week, I got into an argument with one of them, who refused to ply me giving the excuse of a half-down meter, but readily took a passenger who wanted to go to a far off destination."

Priyash Manjerekar said, "If you argue with an auto driver, several of them unite and they start abusing you. My family has now asked me to stay away from fights, as they are scared that these drivers may turn violent and assault me."
