In a move against reckless driving, Girgaon residents have launched a social media campaign urging citizens to record, share and report traffic violations. Citizen activists have flagged bus and school bus drivers allegedly seen talking on their phones while driving, along with concerns about speeding and unregistered electric bikes flouting safety norms.
