To highlight the importance of headlights, backlights, and indicators on vehicles, the Delhi Police took an innovative way to make people aware of the use of these features, which were often ignored or downgraded.
The Delhi police made a 53-second short video to raise awareness. The video was uploaded by the official account of Delhi Police on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday. The tagline of the video is “Apke looks ke sath apki gadi ke looks bhi zaruri hai.”

The message was loud and clear in the video, “Everyday, we try to look good and wear the best clothes, as presentation matters. Like our looks, a vehicle’s looks also matter.” The video says, “Keeping your vehicle’s headlight, taillight, and indicators in good condition is our responsibility, as it will be safe for us and others on the road while driving.”
Notably, we all know that during the winter, dense fog reduces visibility, and to avoid any major injuries, automobile experts always advise maintaining these basic features of the car.
The video was widely circulated on social media platforms, and a user commented, “Parking wale jan bhuj kar indicators light ko break kar dete hai 20 time change karwa chuka hoon main hamesha parking main jab park karo to indicator light tuti hui milti hai.”
