Hug ‘on the go’ costs Delhi couple Rs 11,000 as woman rides on motorcycle’s fuel tank – Times of India

The Delhi Traffic Police slapped a hefty fine of Rs 11,000 on a motorcyclist after a video of a woman sitting on the bike’s fuel tank and hugging the rider went viral. The incident has raised serious concerns over road safety and reckless driving.
The viral video, circulating on social media, shows the man riding a motorcycle on a busy road at night, overtaking vehicles at high speed.Meanwhile, the woman can be seen sitting dangerously on the fuel tank, facing the rider and hugging him as they navigate through traffic. To make it worse, she wasn’t even wearing a helmet. The duo was spotted near the Bhera underpass.
Upon receiving the video, the Delhi Police launched an investigation. Due to the flashing of rear lights, the motorcycle’s license plate was not initially visible, making identification challenging. The police then analyzed CCTV footage from the stretch between Vikaspuri and Peeragarhi to pinpoint the bike.

Riding a motorcycle in such a risky manner poses significant threats, not only to the rider and the passenger but also to other vehicles on the road. Sitting on the fuel tank reduces the passenger’s stability, while hugging the rider limits both their movements and vision. The lack of helmets adds an extra layer of danger, increasing the risk of severe injuries in case of an accident.
In recent months, Delhi Police have ramped up their efforts to monitor and penalize traffic violations, particularly those involving risky stunts and dangerous driving. Advanced CCTV cameras installed across major roads help law enforcement track offenders even when identifying details like license plates are difficult to read. With an increase in such reckless incidents, police have been actively using technology to scan videos and photos shared on social media to catch violators. (Inputs from PTI)
