Summary
A viral video shows officer Naveen Singh stopping his bike at the end of a footpath, trapping commuters who had ridden onto the pavement to dodge traffic and forcing them to turn back.
The intervention came after Singh, riding along a busy route, saw multiple commuters using the footpath as a shortcut around a bottleneck instead of staying on the road.
Instagram users largely praised the tactic, calling Singh brave and applauding the on-the-spot enforcement, though some argued people complied only because a police officer was present.
The clip spread as a pointed example of informal traffic enforcement, highlighting frustration over routine pavement riding and weak adherence to road rules without direct policing.
