Moped rider did not disconnect call even after accident
A video is going viral on the Reddit account, in which it is being shot from inside a car, the focus of the camera is on a person driving a moped, who is talking to someone on the mobile while driving fast. Even when there is a lot of traffic, this person is not ready to cut the call… Sometimes he talks with the mobile in his hands and sometimes he keeps talking on the mobile by holding it close to his shoulder. Once he avoids a confrontation, but does not stop talking on the mobile. Later on, he again meets with someone and meets with an accident.
Violation of traffic rules is very common in India
Riding and driving using mobile phones has become a common problem on Indian roads. Such incidents often come to light where people do not disconnect calls despite being stuck in heavy traffic. Due to this, they put their own lives as well as the lives of others in danger. According to government statistics, thousands of accidents occur every year due to rush driving.
The government has made very strict rules for walking on the roads but there is a lack of awareness. Moped riders often talk while holding their mobile phones on their shoulders, which invites accidents. The viral video is giving advice to people, but it is important to change behaviour.
