What is KiKi challenge?
The challenge requires the performer to dance along with a moving car and then jump back into the car. It involves a slow moving car, with the person jumping out of the car and dancing to the first few lines of Drake's track, 'In My Feelings', on road mostly in the middle of traffic.
Earlier on 30 July, the UP police took to Twitter and indulged into some clever wordplay to raise awareness.
