A group of men attacked a car near the Sarjapur area of Bengaluru in a recent road rage incident, claiming to have been the victim of extortion. Social media users shared a video of the incident, which showed how the frightened car occupants refused to open their windows in the face of a few men riding two-wheelers. The incident was captured in the widely circulated Instagram video, which was taken at Attibele Road on January 7th at 7:30 p.m.
The incident began with a man blocking the car captured in the video. As the car stopped, other men arrived with their two-wheelers, positioning them in front to obstruct further movement. The passengers behind the camera could be heard panicking and urging each other to call the police. Meanwhile, the men outside thumped on the car windows. In heightened panic, the driver proceeded to drive, colliding with a vehicle in the front but carrying it along.
Relieved at having escaped, one passenger noticed the dragged vehicle beneath them. The driver promptly reversed, freeing the two-wheeler, and then drove away.

Regretfully, there are an increasing number of road rage incidents in Bengaluru, including this one. In a prior incident that was caught on camera, a man in Bengaluru traffic was extremely angry with another driver. The angry person on a two-wheeler was seen in the viral video approaching a car with aggression, beating on the driver’s window, and then smashing the windshield with a rock before running away. The incident was recorded by Bernard Mascarenhas, who posted it on Instagram. It was discovered that the incident happened on November 22 at approximately 8:30 p.m. close to the Horamavu Bridge.
