“E-rickshaws don’t follow traffic rules most of the time. They are bullies. They gang up against others when objected and become violent,” a commuter in Prayagraj was quoted by NDTV as saying.

“This mode of transport is good and pollution-free. But it doesn’t mean the police allow them to do whatever they want all the time. It’s very common to see e-rickshaws take the wrong side, make sudden turns,” another commuter said.
