A woman biker was injured after a motorist hit her vehicle with his car following a road rage-related incident on Gurugram’s Golf Course Road, police said on Monday.
Sandeep Turan, public relations officer for Gurugram police, said that the incident has come to light and they are verifying details.
“Police are verifying the exact location of the crash on Golf Course Road with the help of video to the jurisdiction of the police station for necessary legal action,” he said.
Turan said there was no alert to the police control room or any written complaint from the victim after the accident.
“Police will try to approach her to take a written complaint to register a first information report (FIR) for arresting the car driver who hit her,” he added.
According to police, the incident took place on Sunday morning and the matter came to light after her post about the incident along with a crash video began circulating on social media platforms after which Gurugram police’s social media cell took cognisance.
The victim, Sia, was riding her Aprilia sports bike, separately with a group of friends when another person driving a white sedan signalled her to stop after dangerously coming close to her while on the move.

Sia, in her Instagram video, alleged that they all were drunk and she tried her best to maintain distance from the car.
“My friend tried to cover it during the ride so that the car could not approach me to intercept but it rammed me,” she said.
In the videos recorded from cameras installed on her and friends’ bikes, she could be seen getting dragged on the road for several feet with her motorcycle skidding in another direction.
One of her friends intercepted the car at a traffic signal but the driver sped away from the spot. The victim has also shared the car's registration details.
“I have nothing to say, but today I felt unsafe on Gurugram roads. People like these aren’t afraid of hitting people and running away,” she wrote in her post.
