A video circulating on social media has raised alarms over dangerous high-speed stunts performed by a group of men on Delhi roads late at night. The footage, reportedly recorded on December 26, shows multiple cars racing recklessly, with some occupants standing through sunroofs and shouting as the vehicles hurtle along busy streets.

The video captures four to five cars swerving sharply and zigzagging through traffic as they travel from the ITO area towards Noida, putting both motorists and pedestrians at significant risk. The brazen display of dangerous driving has sparked widespread concern online, with many criticizing the authorities for failing to control reckless behavior on the city’s roads.

Responding to public complaints, Delhi Police confirmed that the area traffic inspector had been informed and that action was being taken. The viral clip prompted authorities to review road safety measures and traffic surveillance in the area to prevent similar incidents.

Separate BMW Stunt in Noida

In a related incident, the Sector 39 police in Noida registered an FIR against the driver of a BMW for performing a dangerous stunt on a busy road. The incident, near Sector 44, was captured by a CCTV camera, showing the driver repeatedly spinning the vehicle in place at high speed, blocking traffic on both sides for nearly 20 seconds.

The stunt, allegedly staged for a social media reel, involved a passenger stepping out of the car while the vehicle was in motion to record the act. Police said this behavior posed a serious threat to both public safety and the occupants of the car.

Public Reactions and Concerns

The incidents have provoked strong reactions online, with users describing reckless driving as a frequent occurrence in Delhi and urging authorities to enforce stricter controls. Many highlighted the dangers posed not only to drivers performing stunts but also to innocent commuters and pedestrians who are exposed to these hazards.

Traffic authorities have reiterated that such stunts are illegal and punishable under Indian traffic laws, and urged citizens to report reckless driving. Enforcement measures include the use of CCTV surveillance, deployment of traffic pickets, and fines or arrests for violations.

Police Response

Both the Delhi Police and Noida traffic authorities have assured the public that they are taking the matter seriously. Measures being taken include:

• Investigating the individuals involved using video evidence.
• Tracking down vehicles registered to the suspects for questioning and legal action.
• Intensifying night-time patrolling in areas prone to reckless driving.
• Public awareness campaigns to warn about the dangers of performing stunts on roads.

Authorities emphasized that stunts for social media content, especially high-speed spins, racing, and standing through sunroofs, are not just illegal but pose grave risks of accidents, injuries, and fatalities.

Legal Consequences

Under Indian traffic law, dangerous driving and reckless stunts can result in:

• Fines and penalties under the Motor Vehicles Act.
• Suspension of driving licenses.
• Criminal liability if the stunt results in injury or death.

Police have warned that anyone found performing such acts will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

These incidents highlight the growing concern around stunts performed for social media visibility, which often encourage others to imitate dangerous behavior. Authorities are considering tighter regulations and awareness drives to curb such trends and ensure road safety.

The public has been urged to remain vigilant, report reckless driving, and avoid engaging in or encouraging stunts that endanger lives on the road.
