Viral Video: India is undoubtedly a country where people often misuse their power and status quite openly, and there are countless social media videos to prove the same. Adding to the list, another similar incident from Madhya Pradesh’s Indore came forward, where a biker was harassed by a car driver. The incident was recorded on the bike rider’s camera, the video of which is now going viral. As per the post, the matter unfolded on March 31, where the car driver was seen abusing and threatening the biker.
As heard in the video, the car driver was allegedly triggered after the biker took a wrong ‘cut’. The man then went on to threaten the biker over his ‘powerful status’. The entire matter took place in front of the car driver’s family.
Opening up about the incident in the comments, the biker later revealed that he did not file any complaint, as the matter was solved by the man’s wife, who spoke ‘politely’. As per the comment, the car driver was drunk.
The video was shared on social media platform Instagram, by the handle ‘frustrated_bearded_monk’. The post was captioned, “So this happened on Sunday ride when i was going to meet up with my friends on scheme no. 140 Indore. This drunk man with his family tried to misbehave with me as I was alone. I was not in the mood for any mess as superbikes are always victims in India you can see how these so-called educated people behave when he is with his family otherwise things would have happened differently. My fellow riders were just a call away from that place. Thanks @insta360 camera recorded everything!”
