The airport road has become a hotspot for such dangerous stunts, and people do them for instant social media fame. Earlier, Bengaluru police warned of filing FIRs if bikers were found doing such dangerous stunts.
A user said, “Initially, it was masked with number plates on bikes, but then they removed it and are roaming freely. Now, even school buses have begun removing number plates. Has the law failed? How are they getting so much courage to remove number plates/tamper and do such stunts, or drive around.”
