A video showing a motorcyclist after a high-speed collision with a car violently flung into the air in Lucknow's Indira Nagar has gone viral. The incident captured on CCTV has surfaced on social media.

The viral video captures the moment a Rapido driver crashes into a Swift car while taking a turn in Sector 13, causing the motorcyclist to be thrown into the air.  

अगर सीसीटीवी मौजूद न होता तो कार चालक का बच निकलना नामुमकिन था। ये वाक़िया लखनऊ के इंदिरानगर, सेक्टर 13 का है, जहां आबादी भरे इलाके में नफ़ासत-ए-रफ़्तार का लिहाज़ न रखा गया और ना ही रैपिडो सवार ने एहतियातन ख़ुद को महफूज़ रखने के लिए हेलमेट पहना था। नतीजतन, चोटें आईं, मगर शुक्र है… pic.twitter.com/tD511dfPh6

According to a report by NDTV, police officials said the rider identified as Abhijeet Srivastava, was speeding when he collided with a car making a turn from a neighborhood corner. The impact was so intense that he was flung several meters away, landing on the opposite side of the vehicle.  

Both the bike and the car sustained damage in the accident. Fortunately, Srivastava was promptly taken to the hospital, where he received medical attention. Lucknow police confirmed that he has since been discharged and is recovering at home.   As of now, no official complaint has been registered regarding the incident.

Netizens React To Video

After the CCTV footage surfaced on social media, netizens came up with mixed responses. One of the users said, "People are giving a lot of arguments that it is the fault of the car driver while he slowed down at the turn and his car was also on the left side of the road."

The next wrote in Hindi which translates into English, "In the insurance, the fault will be of the biker, he is the one who broke the rules. The car driver is barely moving at a speed of twenty, and this bike came from the wrong side. Because the fault always lies with the drivers of big vehicles, the car driver is being considered morally guilty."

Another said, "When the car driver turned, he should have honked, the poor biker was driving his bike straight on the road."
