The video begins with a man crossing the street on a scooter while talking on the phone. As the video progresses, a speeding automobile approaches him and collides with his scooter. Fortunately, the man escapes unharmed, but the incident serves as a reminder that using a mobile while driving or crossing the street can be quite dangerous.

A user wrote, “car could have gone straight to avoid mishap. But the bike wala gave a stare to the car for bringing him down the road.” Another user wrote, “The hard truth is people get their DL easily without any tough riding/driving test as compared to other countries where DLs are not issued without clearing mandatory tests.” A third person wrote, “Lucky old man. Went home in the piece instead of flying into some light pole.”
