In a video that went viral on social media, three young women from Jaipur were seen performing stunts on a motorcycle without helmets. Police identified them, issued a ticket, and gave them a strict warning about following traffic rules.
Jaipur: In today's world, the craze to become famous on social media has created a unique kind of obsession among young people. In the pursuit of viral reels and likes, young people don't hesitate to put their own and others' lives at risk. One such case has come to light in Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, where three young women created a reel while performing stunts on a bike without helmets and posted it on social media.
Three Young Women's Fun on a Bike, Video Goes Viral
The incident occurred on a busy street in Jaipur when three young women were seen riding on a bike. They were neither wearing helmets nor following traffic rules. Moreover, the bike was being driven at high speed while swerving, and the girl sitting in the back could be seen giving a flying kiss to the person filming the video. The whole scene was unfolding on a moving road, which in itself was extremely dangerous.
Police Act After Trolling on Social Media
As soon as the video went viral on the internet, people's anger erupted. Social media users not only criticized the irresponsible behavior of the young women but also questioned the Jaipur Traffic Police. Users asked how such stunts could take place on the city's roads despite the presence of the police.
Police Reach the Young Women Through the Bike Number
As soon as the video went viral, the Jaipur Police took the matter seriously. With the help of the bike number visible in the video, all three young women were identified. Then the police traced their location and reached their house. There, the police explained to them about the violation of traffic rules and warned them not to do so in the future.
Violation of Traffic Rules Becomes Trouble
All three young women were accused of violating several rules at once—riding a bike without a helmet, carrying more than two passengers, making a reel from a moving vehicle, and uploading it on social media. The Jaipur Traffic Police issued a challan under the relevant sections for all these violations.
Parents Also Given a Warning
The police not only summoned the young women but also their parents and explained to them the seriousness of traffic rules. They were told that such negligence is not only a legal offense but can also prove to be fatal. There was also a discussion about the increasing addiction to social media, especially among adolescents and young people.
Lesson Learned from Viral Video
This incident has once again proved the extent to which people can go in the race to gain popularity on social media. But it is important to remember that if a few seconds of reel puts your life in danger, then that viral moment is of no use. Young people need to understand that performing stunts, having fun, or making videos on the road can be a danger not only to themselves but also to others.
Police Appeal and Warning
The Jaipur Traffic Police has also issued an appeal after this incident. They said that if any person is seen violating traffic rules on camera, strict action will be taken against them, even if it is just for making a reel. Putting rules aside in the name of social media will no longer be tolerated.
