Starting on December 1, 2022, authorities launched a rigorous six-month campaign on road safety, particularly on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway.

This focused crackdown also targeted offences such as using mobile phones while behind the wheel and driving without permits, seatbelts or fitness certificates.
