Of those caught, 262 were two-wheeler riders, 43 were four-wheeler and other vehicle drivers, and three were autorickshaw drivers, officials said on Friday, April 3.
The Hyderabad Traffic Police said it has adopted a zero-tolerance policy on mobile phone use while driving and would continue to conduct such drives regularly.
