Noida police have begun looking for a cab driver after a video appeared online showing two youths clinging to the bonnet of a moving car in the Sector 18 area, with the vehicle reportedly continuing at speed instead of stopping after a dispute.
The incident falls under the jurisdiction of Sector 20 police station. According to the report, the argument involved the cab driver and the two youths, although the reason for the dispute has not been established. The confrontation escalated when the youths climbed onto the front of the car.
The driver then allegedly moved the vehicle forward while the two men remained on the bonnet. A bystander recorded the episode on a mobile phone, and the video later circulated online. The footage prompted public demands for police action, with social media users describing the incident as a serious case of road rage and a potentially life-threatening act.
The report does not establish whether anyone was injured or identify the two youths seen on the vehicle. It also does not provide details of the cab driver’s identity, the vehicle’s registration number or the exact stretch of road where the incident occurred within Sector 18.
Police said they were examining the video to verify the incident and identify the people involved. Officers are searching for the cab driver and the other individuals shown in the footage. The police said dangerous and negligent conduct on a public road would not be tolerated and that legal action would follow once the identities of those involved were confirmed.
The incident highlights the immediate safety risks created when a private dispute spills onto a busy urban road. A moving car carrying people on its bonnet can endanger those involved as well as pedestrians, two-wheeler riders and other motorists. Further details, including the identities of the people involved and the sections of law applied, are expected after the police inquiry.
