In a dramatic incident captured on CCTV, a Rapido driver was thrown into the air following a severe collision with a car in Lucknow's Indira Nagar area on February 12. The footage, which has gone viral on social media since Thursday, shows the shocking moment when the high-speed motorcycle collided with a Swift car at a turn in Sector 13.
According to police officials, the motorcyclist, identified as Abhijeet Srivastava, was traveling at high speed when he collided with a car emerging from a neighborhood corner. The impact was so severe that Srivastava was thrown off his bike and landed several meters away on the other side of the car.
"The car was not traveling at high speed, as evident in the CCTV footage," stated Chowki In-charge Ashish Pandey, who responded to the scene. Following the accident, Srivastava's family rushed him to the hospital for treatment.
The Station House Officer (SHO) of Indira Nagar police station confirmed that while both vehicles sustained damage in the incident, the injured motorcyclist has since been discharged from the hospital and is recovering well at home. No formal complaint has been filed regarding the accident.
