Asking people to be responsible, Lucknow police also added a disclaimer saying, ''It's a punishable act to smoke hookah on top of a car in a public place.'' They also released a picture of the culprit following his arrest and added that his vehicle has been seized.
Meanwhile, the clip has angered a lot of internet users who asked for strict action against people disregarding road safety norms.
One user said, ''Kya generation hai really... what a heroic activity he thinks he's doing.'' (What generation is this). Another thanked Lucknow police and wrote, ''Thank you Lucknow police for taking action against the one who is destroying the culture of our Lucknow.''
A few days back, a horrifying video surfaced on social media showing a car driver doing stunts on the national highway and then overturning after crashing into the divider.
