public opinion
Local resident Subhash Punetha says that it is becoming difficult to explain rules and regulations to children these days. According to him, until the youth themselves realize that these actions are dangerous for themselves and others, no improvement is possible.
Shankar Tolia suggested that the police should do strict checking not only at night but also during the day and evening. He also said that deployment of police at major intersections could create fear among stuntmen. Apart from this, he advised issuing challans, which will increase the pressure on those breaking the rules to follow discipline.

The police especially urged not to drive under the influence, not to indulge in stunts and to remain within limits. Police also warned that such stunts can prove fatal not only for the stuntmen but also for other pedestrians.
