Mumbai Police has, time and again, proven that when it comes to issuing warnings and maintaining law, peace and order, nobody can be as sassy as its Twitter handle team. Over time, with its impressive pop-culture and Bollywood references, the Twitter team has come to be one of the favourite change-makers on social media, as Twitter users have themselves pointed out at times. Interestingly, the team seems to have upped its social media game and now seems set on using hashtags to get people’s attention. While recently, it was a set of interesting Bollywood posters with the hashtag #IfItWasntForReel that Mumbai Police’s Twitter handle engaged people with, now they are using the hashtag #DontAppAndDrive to emphasise on the obvious — “Don’t use your phones to check messages, WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram.”

Here are the latest tweets that has garnered people’s attention on Twitter.
