The video has gone viral with over one lakh views till now. However, social media users were concerned about the riders. One user wrote, "Missed by a few inches."

Another user commented, "Praan jaaye but Insta reel na jaaye."

"At least everyone is wearing helmet. In Delhi, there has been an increase in two wheeler riders not wearing helmets. They ride tough. Cut sharply between cars & on turn. Battery operated two wheelers being used by delivery boys are out of any control by @dtptraffic," a third user remarked.

A fourth user added, "Using mobile phones while driving - car or bikes are always dangerous but people don't understand it."

Meanwhile, a matador hit a biker while changing lanes near the Rajarajeshwari Nagar signal in Bengaluru. The incident happened in the middle of a busy road as passersby and other motorists rushed in to help the injured biker. A traffic police officer also rushed to help the man.
