By Team Newsable | First Published Jul 21, 2022, 4:17 PM ISTA spine-chilling video of a biker miraculously escaping death after his head comes under the wheel of a bus has gone viral on the Internet.
According to a study published in The Lancet journal, enhancing road safety measures can save nearly 30,000 lives annually in India. Encouraging the usage of helmets and limiting speed can also save lives in the country. Several government agencies repeatedly issued warnings and advised people to follow road safety measures while driving to protect one's life. However, youths ignore such announcements and lose their lives in horrific accidents.
Recently, Bengaluru City's Joint Commissioner of Police, Dr BR Ravikanthe Gowda, shared a terrifying video on his official Twitter handle and insisted bikers use only "good quality ISI mark helmet". The horrifying video shows a man on a bike evading death even after coming under a bus wheel.
