what about trains and CTB buses also all tri forces and police vehicles. They should start from the govt. vehicles because they are run by tax payers money.

If you really check all the vehicles on the road, more that 75percent should end up at scrap yards, including police vehicles.

Both DMT and Police are mega crooks. This activity is just eye wash to show they are strictly fulfilling their responsibilities.
