"Humse na ho payega, kaun bola? Sadak ki, suraksha ki, jeevan ki raksha ki, helmet ki, seatbelt ki niyam agar apneyega, jeevan khushal ban jayega. Baat meri maan, surksha ko jaan.

Shahi has also other ways to persuade motorists to abide by traffic rules. He uses a mirror to make them feel guilty. The cop also buys helmets from his own pocket and gifts it to others. Till date, he has circulated around 700 helmets to people. Sahi, who lost his wife in an accident, appeals citizens to wear helmets and seatbelts while traveling and to follow all traffic rules.
"I came to know about the viral video of my rap song. People are very casual about road safety and are reluctant to follow traffic rules. So, I felt it was my responsibility to make them aware," Shahi said while speaking to ANI.
"I was deeply hurt when my wife suffered injuries in the road accident. Also, I see many young people taking traffic rules very lightly. So, I decided to write this rap, it was the best way to connect with the youth," he added.
Shahi also uses placards with messages such as "Hamesha ISI mark waala helmet pehnein" (one should always wear helmets that have an ISI mark on them) and "Mastishk suraksha kawach" (helmet is the safety equipment for your head).
