DK Police use Ashwin-Buttler incident to warn traffic violators from 'crossing the line before time'
Mangaluru: Dakshina Kannada Superintendent of Police’s official twitter handle recently came up with a innovative idea for warning the violators at traffic signals.
In a tweet on Thursday, Dakshina Kannada SP shared a picture from a recent IPL controversy where Indian ace spinner Ravichandran Ashwin captaining his side KXIP, mankaded Rajasthan Royals’ batsman at non-striker end for leaving the crease before Ashwin delivered the ball. Buttler was subsequently given out on the occasion and had to leave the field when he was all set and smashing the bowlers all over the ground.
On the other side of a picture shared by the SP, a black color four wheeler was stopping outside the line at signal, while all the other vehicles were stopping inside the line.
SP captioned the image innovatively and added “Don’t cross the line before your time. You know it can be costly”.
