Mumbai Traffic Police — Mh47y9540 - licensed to kill?

Address:

Incident occured at 10.25 pm in 09Aug21 in front of SEEPZ andheri east

I have lived in Mumbai all my life and always admired the BEST fleet and its careful drivers. on 09Aug at 22.25 a bus number MH47Y9540 ruined that perception.

The driver jumped a red light in front of the SEEPZ JVLR side gate and took a high speed reckless u turn almost knocking out an auto rickshaw who had the green traffic light and right of way.
He then drove intimidatingly and dangerously trying to overtake me. I was not able to offer him space to pass due to the uneven surface, the ongoing metro construction and an obstruction caused by a contractors trailer truck which was taking a slow turn in front of the seepz main gate
The driver of the said bus [image of bus enclosed as proof] then harassed me over took me dangerously blocked me preventing my left turn at Seepz MIDC end signal
He then abused me loudly, intimidated me threatened to run me over and challenged me to complaint wherever I pleased and said BEST would take no action against him
He blocked my path continuously and drove off after hurling more abuses
I called the central BEST complaint number and was dealt with courteously be one mr Kalebag at 10.50pm approx.He said these are contracted vehicles and he has no record of such a vehicle and that I must make a complaint direct to the police on this matter
I am surprised and disappointed at the blatant lawlessness of your driver [even if on contract] the apparent helpless condition in which BEST finds itself in & the obvious danger to Mumbaikars

Please can you address this issue on priority since the driver may be under the influence of some substance abuse and innocent lives may be lost. The driver cannot be permitted to drive a public transport vehicle any longer and must be examined for intoxicating substance consumption
