Police Want Your WhatsApp Video of Reckless Bus Drivers — Would You Send It?

After last week's multi-bus pile-up on the A9 near Rambewa that killed five people, police have widened their crackdown on drink and drug driving, telling traffic officers islandwide to pay extra attention to bus, lorry, tipper and three-wheeler drivers. The twist: the public has been asked to film reckless bus drivers — speeding, racing, driving under the influence — and WhatsApp the clear video with the registration number straight to a police hotline (070 475 5600). Supporters say this is overdue. Police can't watch every route, a phone video catches what a patrol car never will, and after watching five people die because a bus driver lost control, nobody wants to wait around for a patrol to happen to be there. Critics worry it turns ordinary commuters into unpaid informants, invites fake or malicious reports against drivers on rival routes, and still goes nowhere if the clip just sits in a WhatsApp inbox with no follow-up. Would you actually stop and film a reckless bus driver on your own route? If you've reported one before, what happened after you sent it in? ඔයා මේ වගේ වීඩියෝ එකක් පොලීසියට දාන්න කැමතිද, කලින් දාලා තියෙනවද, මොකද වුනේ?
