Shared by Viewer Location - Delhi I just want to say this to the person in Hyundai Creta “Sir, I'm sorry about the other day. I was in a hurry and couldn't stop my car for you when you overtly car. At signal, a bike had stopped in front of me and blocked my way, which ended up causing you inconvenience. I sincerely apologise for that.” #driveresponsibly #roadrage

On Indian roads, aggressive driving has become a dangerous display of ego, especially among some drivers of bigger vehicles. They mistake the size of their vehicle for power and the road for their personal territory. Remember, a bigger car doesn't make you a bigger person, and intimidating others on the road doesn't make you powerful it exposes your insecurity. #DriveResponsibly #roadrage

Details shared by Nishant The incident occurred the Silk Board flyover in Bengaluru while my wife and I were commuting to work in my Thar Roxx. I was driving at a low speed of around 30 km/h when a biker suddenly cut in front of me from the left without indicating. Thankfully, due to my low speed, I was able to brake in time and prevent a major collision. Despite not being at fault, onlookers immediately started blaming me, as seen in the video. This experience highlights the critical importance of dashcams, as the driver of the larger vehicle is often automatically blamed. I chose not to escalate the situation and simply drove away. #DriveResponsibly #thar

Details shared by Shivam I wanted to share something that happened with me today while I was driving back from Faridabad towards home, Delhi. I’m attaching the dashcam footage along with this email because I think there’s a broader road safety point here that could be worth covering in one of your videos. I was approaching an intersection where traffic is known to get heavily congested due to vehicles coming from the opposite side. To avoid getting caught in the long queue of vehicles joining the road, I accelerated to around 45 km/h. At that point, a Maruti Suzuki Brezza moved into my path. The car had extremely dark window films including the rear glass and alloy wheels popping out. Also I could not see if the driver noticed me approaching. I honked for roughly 3 seconds to alert them. Afterward, the Brezza began following my car while continuously honking for sometime. I couldn't understand what they were trying to achieve. whether they were angry about the horn, trying to establish dominance, or reacting impulsively. Looking back, I can say there may have been a better way for me to handle the initial situation. I could have honked a little earlier to get the other drivers attention or braked to let them pass. However, hard braking on a busy road filled with two wheelers would not be safe either, as it could have caused someone behind me to crash. Rather than engaging or escalating the situation, I slowed down and let them pass. A few seconds of loss of attention from the Brezza driver and one less second of honking could easily have turned into something serious. I'm not claiming I handled every thing in the situation perfectly, but I don't think road incidents should automatically turn into a matter of ego or retaliation. Getting angry on the road doesnt fix anything. it just creates an opportunity for something much worse to happen. Again, it could have been handled in a much better way than it was.

Shared by Mohammed Eshaan Around 1:30 AM in Hyderabad, near Café Niloufer in Hitech City, a group of five cars including a BMW M5 Competition, a Thar, two Fortuners, and a Land Cruiser Prado were overspeeding. The BMW M5 driver had turned off traction control and began drifting at high speed. During one such drift, he lost control of the vehicle, crashing into two parked cars and ramming into the pedestrian walking lane. After the crash, the driver fled the scene. Police arrived nearly an hour later and appeared to be in favor of the BMW driver. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident. #driveresponsibly

Shared by Gaurav - This happened in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. I had my wife and kids with me in the car, so I didn’t get out of the vehicle and quickly drove away to de-escalate the situation. This should be shown to everyone as an example of how to avoid road rage and prevent further damage. #driveresponsibly #roadrage

Incident shared by Subscriber (Aditya) On March 9, 2025, my family—my younger brother, my brother-in-law, and I—went to Mathura for Radha Rani's darshan. While returning towards Gwalior, at around 9:30 PM, we stopped near NH-44, about 8 km before Saiyan Toll Plaza, to use the washroom. At that moment, a blue Baleno without a number plate approached us from the wrong side. After stopping, the occupants started asking us for our car number, the car owner's name, where we were coming from, and where we were headed. Three men got out of the car, heavily intoxicated, and started pushing my younger brother. When we resisted and pushed them back, we immediately tried to leave. However, they started chasing us and caught up to us at Saiyan Toll Plaza. While we were in the FASTag lane, they attacked our car with an iron rod, forcibly opened the driver-side door, hit the driver with the rod, and knocked him unconscious. They smashed the car badly, causing it to roll back in reverse. As the car moved backward, they attacked again before eventually breaking the Saiyan NH-44 Toll Plaza barrier and fleeing within three minutes. We have already filed an FIR at the Saiyan Police Station, and the CCTV footage of the attackers has been retrieved from the toll plaza.

I live and work in Pune. I had an unfortunate incident where I was attacked by a few goons on my way home from the office. I was returning from the office in, Kharadi, Pune around 8:30 PM on Wednesday 11th December, 2024. I took a turn on Kharadi-Hadapsar bypass on Accolade society road. As the road was wet and it was not a rainy day I thought of it due to some water tankers which must have passed. But as I reached closer there was a pothole. The car was already slow as it was a narrow alley with bad roads. I further slowed down as evident from dashcam footage. I also tried to keep the wheels of the car to the left of the pothole but it was not possible due to the scooty standing ahead. And the pothole was a little deep and tires rolling over the deep pothole caused a little splash, which was not intentional. After that, these goons chased the car and stopped it a little ahead. You can hear from their language what kind of hooligans they were. I tried to stay calm and tried to explain that it was not intentional but they were not ready to listen to any reasoning. Probably their plan was to take my car to the side and extort money but I refused to take it to the side. Then one of the boys kicked at my car causing a dent and then ran away. I reported this to the police and registered a FIR and gave them the two wheeler number MH12 GP 6147 immediately, but I don't think the police will take any action. The two wheeler's insurance has expired since 2012. They refused to issue any challan also. This kind of incident is common in Pune, Kharadi area and has happened with my colleagues also. Sadly due to police inaction these guys have become more fearless. @punepolicecity महाराष्ट्र पोलीस - Maharashtra Police #pune

It’s a common — and deeply concerning — sight on Indian roads and highways: broken-down vehicles left stranded, sometimes even in the fast lane, without any prior warning or hazard indication. This reckless scenario becomes especially dangerous at night, when visibility is low and drivers have little time to react. Such negligence isn’t just limited to irresponsible drivers; it reflects a serious failure on the part of highway authorities, government agencies, and traffic police, who turn a blind eye to these life-threatening situations. Important Reminder: Always overtake only when the road ahead is fully clear. Never take chances — a split-second decision can be the difference between life and death, especially on highways. #driveresponsibly

A service center worker crashed the Harrier at a very high speed while it was there for service. After the incident, they asked the customer to file a claim, and when he refused, they abused him, used caste slurs, and said he doesn't have to buy these cars (as per the owner) . The rest of the details are in the video Tata Motors
