GURGAON: Haryana’s top police officer, OP Singh, has warned that certain vehicles are more likely to be associated with reckless driving, singling out Thar and Bullet motorcycles during a public interaction on Saturday. Speaking to reporters, Singh said officers could not ignore high-risk vehicles while conducting road checks. “If it’s a Thar, how can we let it go? Or if it’s a Bullet motorcycle…(saare badmash issi pe chalte hain) all rogue elements use these two. The choice of vehicle reflects your mindset,” he said, adding that Thar drivers often perform stunts on public roads.Singh referenced a recent incident involving the son of an assistant commissioner of police, who ran over someone while driving a Thar. “He wants his son freed, and we asked whose name the car is registered in. It’s in his name, so he is the rogue element,” Singh said.‘Police officers should act politely during vehicle checks’ In a new directive, bar and restaurant owners have also been tasked with ensuring that customers do not drive under the influence of alcohol. Officials said establishments must monitor patrons, arrange alternate transport if necessary, and display warnings about drunk driving. Failure to comply could lead to penalties under Section 168 of the BNSS. Singh emphasised that police officers should act politely during vehicle checks and avoid creating unnecessary inconvenience for law-abiding citizens. He suggested removing checkpoints in areas already covered by CCTV and improving road signage in Hindi and English to assist drivers. High-performance vehicles and superbikes, often linked to unruly behaviour, will receive particular attention from traffic police. Singh also highlighted growing concerns over cybercrime and announced plans to strengthen the state’s cyber police unit with advanced technology and additional personnel. “People buy vehicles to enjoy their lives, not to be harassed at checkpoints,” Singh said, urging drivers to adhere to traffic rules while warning that those who break them would face strict enforcement.
