While trying to escape, the Thar hit a grey Maruti Swift driving in the correct lane. The situation worsened as the driver lost control and rammed into several parked two-wheelers. One scooter owner had to abandon his vehicle to avoid being hit, but the driver showed no regard for safety and struck the scooter regardless.

The driver fled the scene immediately after the incident, leaving behind a trail of damage and confusion. The CCTV footage has sparked outrage on social media, with netizens condemning the reckless behaviour and calling for strict action against the driver. Many are urging the police to take swift action and hold the driver accountable for endangering lives and damaging property.

Another X user, Kuldeep Munshi, wrote, “He should be immediately arrested, his license revoked if any by his name and put into jail, severe punishment for his acts …I hope the police must have arrested him by now”.
