Wrong-side school bus, fined! Photo with driver and police caused a stir!
The photo went viral, viewed by millions of people.
On social media, you never know when something goes viral. Recently, a fresh photo features a bus driver and a traffic police officer standing together. The picture gives the impression that the driver did something extraordinary, and the police officer is honoring him with an award. The pose adds to the effect. However, after reading the backstory, it turns out that the police officer issued a fine to the driver instead of presenting an award.
The incident took place in Bangalore, and it's becoming viral on social media. The subject of the video is a school bus driver. Someone posted a video showing the bus taking a sharp U-turn on the wrong side near the Garudacharpalya Metro Station. A day before posting the video, there had been complaints about the driver's behavior. The post tagged the school and traffic police, providing details and location of the bus. Concerns were raised about endangering the lives of so many children, deeming it highly inappropriate. People also demanded that fines should be imposed in response to this incident.

He seems to be happy getting it. Is that an award?
