Restrain from Kiki Challenge or count the bars, warn Hyderabad Traffic Police

Kiki Challenge, involving a person jumping out of a slow moving car and dancing to Drake’s “In my feelings” song has been trending among youngsters across the world. If dancing the heart out is one reason for the trending, breaking rules is another reason.
