A woman learning to ride an Activa in Rajkot had a frightening experience after she lost control of the two-wheeler while attempting a U-turn near the Govindbagh vegetable market. A neighbouring CCTV camera captured the strange incident, which has since been shared on social media. The woman tried to do a U-turn while riding along the road, according to the video. But halfway through the bend, she seemed to lose control of the scooter.
Rather of coming to a halt, the Activa accelerated toward the side of the road and drove straight for a store. Shortly after, the scooter struck the shop's closed shutter with significant force. The impact caused the woman to be thrown off the Activa. She fell headfirst near the shutter, making the incident appear particularly alarming in the CCTV footage.

वीडियो देखकर साफ लग रहा है कि इस महिला ने अभी एक्टिवा चलाना नहीं सीखा है फिर भी यह भीड़ भरे सड़क पर एक्टिवा चलाने का प्रेक्टिस कर रही हैं
अब सोचिए अगर वह दुकान खुली होती और वहां ग्राहक खड़े होते तो कितना बड़ा हादसा हो सकता था
तो कृपया एक्टिवा की प्रैक्टिस खुले मैदान… pic.twitter.com/1P2aOxfq3O— 🇮🇳Jitendra pratap singh🇮🇳 (@jpsin1) August 23, 2026
A nearby CCTV camera captured the entire incident. Social media users reacted to the shocking disaster as soon as the video became viral. However, the video also emphasises the dangers that novice motorcyclists confront when honing their skills on congested public highways. Thankfully, the woman was successfully recovered, and the event did not result in any significant injuries.
The mishap serves as a warning that novices should best learn to ride two-wheelers in open, low-traffic areas and under appropriate supervision. New riders can improve their control of the vehicle by practicing turning, braking, and acceleration away from congested roadways.
It's equally crucial to wear a helmet and other suitable safety equipment because even a small loss of control can cause major harm. The Rajkot event demonstrates how a rider's inability to control a two-wheeler may swiftly convert a regular practice ride into an accident.
