The video has triggered a wave of reactions on social media, with many users calling out reckless driving and poor traffic discipline.
How did Reddit users react?
“Glad no one was hurt. The Creta driver should be immediately fined for reckless driving,” one user wrote.
Another commented on the broader issue of traffic indiscipline, “That's a grave mistake by the driver. Am I the only one who noticed these, vehicles stopping after the white stripes, blocking the free left turn? Are we ever going to learn traffic rules?”
Some also pointed out that both parties may have been at fault. “Both of them are actually in the wrong. Should have stopped behind the zebra crossing. Just saying,” another user observed.
Recently, in Bengaluru’s KR Puram area, a speeding car lost control and rammed into multiple vehicles. The terrifying moment was captured on a dashcam and had gone viral on social media.
The footage, shared by a social media handle named Third Eye, shows the SUV veering uncontrollably, crashing into several vehicles before colliding with a road divider. Thankfully, as there were no two-wheelers in its direct path, a major tragedy was averted.
