A new video on road safety from Mumbai Traffic Police drives home the importance of responsibility. 'With a great party comes great responsibility' is the imperative in the five-day-old video, titled 'Guilt,' that portrays the aftermath of an accident caused by drunk driving.
The emotional storyline showcases a weeping man who recalls the last few hours spent with his friend and colleague, who dies in an accident after leaving a party he hosted. Racked by guilt, he is haunted by the ghost of his dead friend who appears to silently reproach the host for letting him drive in an intoxicated state. The story sends out a very strong message about driving responsibly and making the right choices.

Changing gear somewhat, a local Mumbai cabbie's story on the popular Facebook page Humans of Bombay showcases just how Maximum City sometimes treats others with minimum respect.
In a post on Tuesday, the unnamed taxi driver explains that not all of his fares pay the bill, despite promises: "There have been times when people have gotten out of my cab, saying they'll be back with my money but they just don't show up again. I don't understand it - these people live in good buildings, can afford good phones and good clothes, but when they have to be stingy, they cheat people like me who can barely make ends meet. I don't understand it."
