Prayagraj: A hair-raising video circulating on social media shows a man performing a dangerous stunt: hanging from the door of a moving car. The incident has sparked outrage and serves as a stark reminder of the importance of responsible driving and passenger behavior.
The viral clip opens with a man clinging to the outside of a moving car door, seemingly secured only by plastic. Despite the clear risk involved, he appears gleeful while dangling from the vehicle. The driver even extends a high five during the stunt, and another passenger in the back seat seems amused.
Shared on Instagram by Sumit Dubey, the video has amassed nearly 90 million views and over two million likes within a week. This reckless act follows on the heels of another concerning social media post that depicted a young boy precariously balanced on the footrest of a moving scooter in Bangalore.
The previous incident, captured in Bangalore's IT hub Whitefield, showed a woman carrying a child precariously balanced on her scooter with minimal support. Whitefield Rising shared the video on X (formerly Twitter) with a strong message: "Don't do this. One small stone or a minor dip in the road is enough to cause irreversible harm." They further emphasized the importance of parental responsibility and discouraged personal attacks in the comments.
These viral videos highlight the potential consequences of disregarding traffic safety. Hanging from a moving car or allowing a child to balance precariously on a scooter puts everyone involved at serious risk.
This incident serves as a crucial reminder for drivers and passengers to prioritize safety on the road. Social media platforms also have a responsibility to raise awareness about such reckless behavior and encourage responsible content sharing.
