The most alarming scenes came from the Dwarka Expressway, where some individuals were seen placing firecrackers on the roofs of moving vehicles and setting them off, endangering other road users. In one instance, an SUV mounted an elevated divider and was left dangerously teetering — though, fortunately, no injuries were reported.
