In the clip, Bawa introduces himself and explains that his parents have travelled overseas for the first time to visit him. As they observe a busy road in Bangkok, the camera turns to his mother, who appears visibly stunned. What catches her attention is not the number of vehicles but the absence of noise and chaos that many often associate with heavy traffic.
‘Kya civic sense hai’ moment resonates online
Bawa points out that despite the congestion, no one is honking and there is no unnecessary overtaking. The text overlaid on the video and repeated in the caption reads, “Kya civic sense hai,” which translates to “What amazing civic sense.”

One viewer commented, “We really need this kind of civic sense in India,” while another wrote, “This is exactly what disciplined driving looks like.” A third reaction read, “Indian roads would be so different if people stopped honking for no reason.”
Others echoed similar sentiments, with one user saying, “It is not about roads, it is about mindset,” and another adding, “Small habits can make a huge difference.”
