Reckless battery-run rickshaws on the highway

Battery-run rickshaws can be seen going the wrong way on the Dhaka-Chattogram highway. The three-wheelers are banned from the busy road, but they seem to be operating on it with impunity. Their tendency to use the high-speed lanes instead of the service lanes is also leading to accidents.
