The video opens to show a woman in a car engaged in an argument with a traffic cop. Another policeman stands in front of her vehicle, presumably to stop her from leaving the toll plaza. The woman accuses the cops of using abusive language, which one of them denies. This continues for some time before things escalate and take a scary turn. The woman suddenly hits the cop in front of her car and flees the scene.

Take a look at the scary video here:

“Some people are an epitome of arrogance; these individuals can’t ever be groomed by all the education, elitism and the unlimited riches they have,” wrote an X user.

“She should be booked in the attempted murder of a policeman,” urged another.

“Shameless citizen,” expressed a third.

“What an entitled woman. Hope they caught her and took her to jail!” commented a fourth.

According to Dawn, an FIR against the woman was registered with the Naseerabad police station. Motorway police complained against her on the charges of negligent driving, attempted murder, and obstructing a policeman to perform his duty.

A special team headed by SSP Operations retired Lt Hafiz Kamran Asghar was formed by Regional Police Officer (RPO) Rawalpindi Babar Sarfraz Alpa to apprehend the woman. The officials stated, “No one would be allowed to take the law into their hands”.
