Begging on the roads might be dangerous so the police are trying to take measures to stop it.
On 24 August the police started checking if pedestrians and cyclists respect traffic rules. They will watch beggars, too, because they usually sell magazines or distribute flyers in busy hubs sometimes creating dangerous situations by that. The police exclaimed that in case beggars stay on the roads, they break the rules for pedestrians. The police are calling on drivers to refuse the services offered thereby preventing beggars to start an unlawful activity.
