I think one of these days one of them will get run over, and some poor dude will find a simple speeding offence being upgraded to a homicide charge. |
Recently there've been a couple of instances where cops got bumped off in Bangalore.
after these incidents cops have become clever & have been (supposedly) advivsed not to go in front of the cars. They target only the bikes.

endangering both their life & the riders.
