Gurgaon: Close to 38 degrees Celsius, sweltering heat and the sun shining right on top of the head temperatures were hotter still at a toll plaza in Gurugram, right next to the national capital, Delhi.
“You’ll stop my car? Even the police doesn’t stop my car,” said an Innova driver, refusing to pay the toll, to the attendant standing in front of his car, reported news agency ANI.
And then the unthinkable happens. The driver immediately accelerates to get away without paying at the Manesar toll plaza, disregarding the life of the attendant, who jumps onto the bonnet. The entire sequence captured by the CCTV installed at the booth.
The Innova driver does not stop. Another angle in the same video released by ANI shows the driver charging down the road, with the toll booth staff still on the bonnet.
“The driver dragged me for 5-6 km on his car’s bonnet on a speed of about 100 km/hour,” the toll staff said.
It is not clear yet whether the driver was arrested.
