In this popular survival drama series, the first game that is played by the contestants is ‘Red Light, Green Light’, during which a giant robotic doll says in English, ‘Red light, Green Light’, to the contestants. If the player moves after she says ‘red light’, they get eliminated and are shot down.
In a novel way, Mumbai Police took to Twitter to share their version of ‘Red Light, Green Light,’ for highlighting the importance of traffic lights on the road.
“You are the ‘frontman’ of your ‘game’ on the road: you can save yourself from getting eliminated. Stop at red lights. #SafetyNotAGame #EliminateSpeedGames,” they captioned the post with a small clip from the particular sequence in the show.
