After mid-day's ongoing campaign against errant drivers, the crime branch of Mumbai police has intensified its crackdown on erring taxis and autos. The city crime branch arrested four people including drivers and mechanics, who rigged them to make a quick buck.
Sources told mid-day that crime branch sleuths examined over 1,000 auto-rickshaws and taxis plying in the city to ascertain if their meters were rigged. They have requested commuters to approach Mumbai police if they feel they have been charged exorbitantly when traveling by public transport.
