Fan says auto drivers should also wear helmets; Ashwin responds!
Home > News Shots > Sports newsCricketer Ashwin Ravichandran had earlier tweeted on Wednesday regarding helmet and road safety. He tweeted, "Friend drives his bike with helmet on!! Receives a 100 rupee fine challan by post for his pillion rider not wearing a helmet. He pays the fine online and orders a spare helmet to carry from the next day. There is so much negativity, but this is a big ✅ for all those responsible."

Soon, a fan replied "Sir this should be applicable to Auto- rickshaw drivers too." To which a confused Ashwin asked "Wearing helmets??"

Upon confirmation, he responded that "Will look funny.. but I can see why you are saying it.. got no doors nor seatbelt’s."

While helmet is a bit extra, something could be done for the safety of auto drivers as well.
