Woman Yells At Injured Biker After Crash, Internet Slams Her Behaviour
Last Updated: A video from Bengaluru shows a bike lying on the road after a crash, with visible damage to one side of the car involved. A disturbing video of a road accident in Bengaluru has gone viral, sparking outrage across social media platforms. The footage captures a heated confrontation following a crash between a car and a two-wheeler near a petrol pump in the city. What has drawn the most criticism is the behaviour of a woman, who was the owner of the car involved in the mishap. Despite the biker visibly bleeding and writhing in pain on the road, the woman could be heard hurling insults and accusing him of 'pretending'. In the viral video, the woman could be seen filming her badly damaged Renault Kwid and claiming that the biker rammed into her car while exiting the petrol pump. The front portion of the car, including the bumper and fender, appears to be severely damaged and partially broken. In comparison, the Royal Enfield motorcycle involved in the crash seems to have suffered little to no visible damage. The clip also captures the injured biker, who could be seen bleeding heavily from the mouth. He is seen trying to rinse the blood away using bottled water while standing just outside the petrol pump. Throughout this, the woman continues to record him while shouting and using offensive language. At one point, she is heard saying, 'His bike is absolutely fine, but look at my car." She accuses the biker of pretending to be injured and even demands the petrol bill from the station staff as evidence to support her version of the incident. Later in the footage, the woman shifts her camera toward a grey car driving through the petrol pump, insisting that her Renault Kwid had been parked next to it at the time of the incident. She claims the biker dashed her stationary car while riding out of the fuel station. (Warning: The video has strong language. Please use headphones.) Shared widely on X, the video has racked up over 5 lakh views, drawing widespread public attention. Despite the uncertainty, the video has sparked strong reactions online. Many viewers have condemned the woman's behaviour, criticising her harsh tone and lack of empathy towards the injured man, regardless of who may have caused the crash. A user wrote, 'What is she even saying? We really don't need such unruly behaviour on the roads. Hopefully, the police have taken appropriate action." Another comment read, 'Avoid this woman and her car. The poor man is bleeding, and honestly, our ears are hurting from her yelling." Someone else posted, 'It looked like everyone around was just waiting for her rant to end. Clearly, most people were supporting the injured biker." Another user remarked, 'The woman was using terrible language. She seemed either intoxicated or not in her senses. It looks like she was the one who hit the biker. This is a clear case of power being misused." As of now, the exact cause of the accident remains unclear, with no official statement from the police regarding who was at fault.
