A tragic road rage incident led to the death of a motorcyclist in Bengaluru on Wednesday night. The victim was killed when a car, which had been pursuing him aggressively, rammed into his motorcycle from behind. The confrontation reportedly began after a heated argument between the driver and the biker escalated into a dangerous pursuit.
CCTV footage of the incident, captured in the city’s Vidyaranyapura area, shows the car tailing the motorcycle at high speed before the collision. The biker, who sustained severe injuries, succumbed to his wounds shortly after the accident. The police have registered a First Information Report (FIR) and arrested two individuals in connection with the case. An investigation is currently underway.
This tragic event adds to the growing concern over road rage incidents in Bengaluru. Just days before, another road rage incident was reported involving a biker attacking a couple’s car. The altercation, which took place when the car allegedly turned left without signaling, escalated when the biker threw a large stone at the vehicle, shattering its windscreen. The incident was captured on video and quickly went viral on social media, showing the biker’s violent actions and the distress of the car’s occupants, including a crying baby.
In response to the incident, Bengaluru City police have arrested the biker involved in the earlier altercation and are conducting a thorough investigation. The police have assured the public of swift action in dealing with such road rage cases and have urged citizens to report any such incidents promptly.
The recent surge in road rage incidents has highlighted the need for increased awareness and preventive measures to ensure safety on Bengaluru’s streets. The community and authorities alike are calling for greater vigilance and responsible driving to prevent such tragic events in the future.
