The traffic woes of Vile Parle have inspired some of its teenagers to put their summer vacations to good use. After their routine sports practice at the Parle Tilak ICSE school grounds, the children take to the roads, urging errant motorists to follow traffic rules. The initiative has so impressed the local residents that many have come forward offering to support GenNext in the effort.

Residents of Orlem in Malad West had begun a similar drive of confronting traffic offenders. The youth initiative has received a good response on social networking sites too. "Kudos to these Vile Parle teenagers who request offending vehicles to follow traffic discipline on the one-way lane in front of Parle Tilak ICSE school. Sometimes they are met with rude vehicle owners who threaten them. @MumbaiPolice, can't their efforts be supported? @CPMumbaiPolice," the twitter account of Vile Parle esidents‏ @vlpresidents read.
