A recent social media post about an autorickshaw driver’s strict rules for passengers has gone viral. The driver put up a sign that read: “Warning!! No romance. This is a cab, not your private place or OYO, so please keep distance and stay calm. Give respect, take respect. Thank you.”
The mention of OYO, known for providing privacy to couples, made the post even funnier. This also came after OYO announced a new rule in Meerut, banning unmarried couples from checking into their hotels. Many users connected the two, with one joking, “Even OYO has a problem with romance now.”

People online loved the driver’s no-nonsense attitude, with some laughing at the idea that such a rule was even needed. Others appreciated the humor behind it.
This isn’t the first time a driver’s rules have gone viral. Last year, a cab driver gained attention for asking passengers not to call him “bhaiya” and to “keep their attitude in their pocket.”
