What happens when the guardians of the law blatantly break it? In 2018, they get called out on Twitter. Over the past few days, the Mumbai Police's Twitter account has been flooded with photos and videos sent by alert citizens, of policemen violating traffic rules while they are on duty. Taking cognisance of the complaints, the traffic police has issued e-challans to several cops caught on the citizens' cameras.

The cops have been receiving the tweets from a group of alert citizens every day. The pictures and videos show other policemen in uniform riding bikes without helmets, driving the official car without wearing a seat belt, driving on the wrong side of the road, jumping signals and using a fancy number plate for their personal vehicle.
