Even as the traffic division of the Mumbai police is going all out against errant autorickshaw drivers at Lokamanya Tilak Terminus (LTT), usual teething troubles have threatened to mar its success.

Ever since mid-day launched its campaign to expose how autorickshaw drivers were harassing unsuspecting passengers, the cops have been trying to pull out all stops to get hold of traffic violators. A day after this newspaper reported that it had taken action against 114 drivers on a single day (Friday), the traffic police ensured it kept the momentum going, with 106 violators being fined on Saturday. "We will continue the drive at the LTT premises. We won't spare anyone violating the traffic law," said Balkrishna Mane, senior inspector of the Chembur traffic division.
