He should definitely be punished if he has done a crime!
That is why we have courts and police in the country.

Meanwhile, he is out on bail. Supposed to be a non-bailable offence if he was the one who was behind the wheels. But they could not even prove that he had consumed alcohol, forget about whether he drove or not. :Frustrati

Sorry, off topic, but that is the state of affairs connected to the thread subject - "accidents in India"

He refused to give blood sample for testing, that's the loophole here, and that's the reason, police could not prove, whether he had consumed alcohol or not.

Just wondering - Can a common man refuse giving blood sample?

Most people usually 'abscond' for 24-48 hours, then surrender voluntarily for interrogation. Drunk driving can no longer be proven, so it's practically a get-out-of-jail-free card in some respects.

Now that was one expensive Tik Tok video.

How come the Scorpio accelerated all of a sudden from stop? You can see the rear wheel spinning.

The guy stops the Bolero by pressing the brake and clutch. Gets out of the car, releases the clutch while doing so, the car still in gear and idling, jumps forward.

If that's the case,then also how can one get out of the car, especially a big vehicle like Scorpio, with his one leg still on the clutch pedal and another on the ground.stupid:

One last time - It is BOLERO

He can, because he has BIG legs :D
The moment he landed his right leg on the ground and lifted his left leg from clutch, vehicle started moving. Doable. Isn't it?

Definitely. Notice the time he starts getting out of the vehicle(by lifting his left leg off the clutch) the rear wheel spins and the next moment vehicle starts. The mighty torque of the engine is so much, that even after the car hits the compound it doesnt look like the engine stalled and the wheels are still spinning. :Shockked:

Buddy, that chap is tall. Height of Bolero is around 1.88 m, the guy is almost as tall as that.

Glad that he tried against the wall. Open ground or public road would have been disastrous.

That argument would make sense if the car moved ahead just briefly. But the driver is out completely towards the end. So there should no power to the vehicle, no accelerator input. But, you can see the rear wheel spinning even after it hits the wall instead of stalling on the gear. Where is the power for the car coming from ? Unless the moron put in some weight block on the accelerator keeping it pressed or it got stuck, it doesn't make sense to me. While this is funny, thank god no one is around and this is done in a isolated spot, imagine the car running away onto the path of another vehicle or an innocent bystander.

Any vehicle that has a lot of torque can get going like that. That's one of the advantages of diesel engines over petrol engines.

It seems you are not used to long stroke diesel engines. Most of my driving in bad road conditions, or factory sites etc is done with engine in first or second at idle. Most others have commented correctly of what happened.
