Bengaluru Man Caught Staging Car Accident in Viral Dashcam Video

A shocking incident in Bengaluru has gone viral after dashcam footage surfaced showing a man staging a car accident in Whitefield. The video, which quickly gained traction on social media, captures the man intentionally stepping in front of a moving car and pretending to be injured, likely in an attempt to extort compensation from the driver. As the man lies on the road, two motorcyclists arrive on the scene, seemingly to act as witnesses for the fake accident.

The dashcam footage reveals the entire staged event, sparking outrage among Bengaluru residents, as staged accidents have been increasingly reported in the area. The video has highlighted the importance of installing dashcams, with many social media users urging stricter measures to prevent such fraudulent incidents.

One user stated, “This needs immediate police action. People should install dashcams for their protection.” Another commented, “Scams are becoming more dangerous by the day, especially at night.” Many shared their own experiences with dashcams, noting how it has helped them avoid becoming victims of similar scams.

This incident follows a similar case from last year, where a woman was caught on a dashcam faking an accident, only to attack the driver once she had fallen onto the car.

The rise of such scams has caused alarm in Bengaluru, with calls for stronger enforcement and awareness to prevent further incidents.
