Indicator WHAT? Three vehicles pile up in careless act of turning, video surfaces

New Delhi: A chilling video has emerged online showcasing a three-vehicle collision in Pune, India. The incident, which reportedly occurred near Wakad in the Pimpri-Chinchwad region, highlights the dangers of reckless lane changes and serves as a cautionary tale for drivers.

Car sweeps auto, bike

The viral video, which lasts less than a minute, depicts a seemingly ordinary traffic flow. However, the situation takes a drastic turn as a car on the far left lane abruptly swerves right, disregarding lane markings. This maneuver results in a direct collision with an auto-rickshaw traveling in the adjacent lane. The force of the impact sends the auto careening into a motorbike riding alongside it, creating a domino effect that leaves all three vehicles involved in the accident.

Cause for concern

The visuals from the video are particularly disturbing, showcasing the car appearing to lose control momentarily before hitting the auto and motorbike. The auto even flips over during the collision, raising concerns about the potential severity of injuries sustained by those involved.

Social media buzz

The video, which was shared on X  by a user named Godman Chikna on June 10, has garnered significant traction on social media platforms. With over 1.7 lakh views on the platform alone, the incident has sparked discussions about responsible driving practices and the importance of adhering to traffic regulations.
