Despite Pune Police's claims of consistently cracking down on traffic violators, the reality on the ground tells a different story. It appears that the public largely disregards the rules and continues to behave as they please. A video of one such incident has gone viral on social media.

As seen in the video, a youth, allegedly under the influence of alcohol, driving a BMW, got out of the car at a traffic signal in Yerawada, leaving the door open to urinate at the divider. When locals confronted him, the youth exposed himself to them and then drove off at full speed.
Activist Vijay Kumbhar shared the video on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday and wrote, "The spoiled, drunk sons of wealthy families in Pune have turned the city into their personal playground of terror. Armed with their father's wealth and influence, they believe they are above the law — driving recklessly in luxury cars, intimidating ordinary citizens, and creating public nuisance without any fear of consequences."
"Their mindset? 'We can do whatever we want. Our money can buy us freedom. The law is our servant.' And why not? Time and again, whenever these brats commit crimes — whether it's killing people in accidents, molesting women, or creating chaos — influential politicians and their powerful families ensure the cases are either buried or slowed down until public outrage fades. The result? Their arrogance and lawlessness keep growing, and innocent lives keep getting destroyed. Pune is no longer safe because the law has two faces — one for the rich and one for the common man," he continued.
"This is not just a breakdown of law and order — it's a clear display of how money and political connections can turn criminals into 'untouchables.' The real question is — how many more lives will be destroyed before the system wakes up? Or will it ever?" Kumbhar added.
