Korean drama Squid Game is not only Netflix’s biggest series launch but also one of its most talked-about shows in recent times. With fans already flooding the internet with excitement, expressing their eagerness for the second season of the survival drama, a road sign resembling the Squid Game symbol (a circle, square and triangle) left many motorists confused.

While the Korean drama fans were excited to see the sign in real life, it didn’t take much time for the highway sign to go viral on the internet, which ended up prompting the UK police to step in and issue a clarification note. “Evening all.

Needless to say, fans of the popular survival game show reacted to the British Police’s tweet as well, and within no time the internet was flooded with hilarious responses.

Using the popularity of Squid Game, Mumbai Police, known for churning out creative social media posts, shared a video featuring the ‘Red Light, Green Light’ game from the Netflix series while urging people to follow the traffic signal rules. “You are the ‘frontman’ of your ‘game’ on the road: you can save yourself from getting eliminated. Stop at red lights. #SafetyNotAGame #EliminateSpeedGames,” Mumbai Police tweeted.
