Viral Video: A shocking yet amusing viral video is circulating on the internet, showing a bike overloaded with eight people — a husband and wife, along with their six children. The video, uploaded on the X account FirstBiharJharkhand, captures this astonishing scene. The black-colored Pulsar bike is seen carrying all eight family members, with three small children sitting on the tank, the man driving the bike, his wife behind him, and three more children sitting at the back.
Viral Video Shows Bike Overloaded with Eight People
The video shows a police officer stopping the bike and counting the number of people on board, not just once but twice. The incident was reportedly filmed in Shahjahanpur, Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh. The caption of the video mentions that the family was heading to watch a local mela (fair). In addition to the family, the bike also carried some unusual cargo — a mattress, a bucket, and a stick.
Shocking Response from the Police in the Viral Video
What makes this viral video even more surprising is that despite the dangerous overload and lack of safety gear, the police did not issue a challan (fine). In the video, the police officer is seen pointing out that the family had not worn helmets, yet they were allowed to continue their journey. The footage concludes with the police officer instructing the family to leave without any penalties.
Why This Viral Video Raises Safety Concerns
While the video is amusing to many, it also raises significant safety concerns. There are valid reasons why bikes are designed for only two people. Traffic and safety guidelines have been set by the government to ensure the well-being of all road users. By overloading the bike with eight people, the family was not only endangering their own lives but also the lives of other road users.
This viral video serves as a reminder that as roads become more crowded with bikes and cars, it is our collective responsibility to follow traffic rules. Adhering to safety guidelines, such as wearing helmets and avoiding overloading vehicles, is crucial in preventing accidents and ensuring everyone’s safety.
