Another road rage incident recently occurred in Bengaluru, where the situation was diffused due to the presence of a dash camera inside the victim’s car. The offenders, upon noticing the camera, refrained from escalating the conflict further. However, they still stopped the car and verbally abused the driver.
In a viral video, a man parked his Bolero in the middle of the road, blocking another car behind him. He exited his vehicle and engaged in a heated argument with the driver of the car behind him. Piyush Kukkar shared the incident on social media, emphasizing the importance of dash cams in Bengaluru. He recounted how a scooter deliberately obstructed his path on Varthur road around 10:25 PM, while a Bolero driver honked aggressively from behind, eventually confronting him verbally.
