Not JCB, Viral Video Shows Kerala Auto’s Attempt To ‘Demolish’ Petrol Pump | Ghar Ke Kalesh on X
A video capturing an auto-rickshaw driver dramatically crashing into a Bharat Petroleum petrol pump counter has gone viral, leaving netizens amused and baffled at the same time.
The footage shows a black-and-yellow auto-rickshaw approaching the petrol station before suddenly accelerating and ramming into the pump. The driver furiously hit the booth, however, falling off his seat himself without causing any intended damage to the fuel station.
The video started showing an auto entering the pump. The staff members were heard asking a woman standing next to the filling booth to not obstruct the vehicle’s way after sensing aggressive driving.
The footage recorded the three-wheeler with the number plate “KL 19 X 1951” speeding on the premises and reportedly attempting to demolish the pump.
The auto collided with the booth and led to the driver’s fall. He lost control of his vehicle and skidded onto the raised platform at the fuel point. It seemingly didn’t cause any serious injuries or major damage.
What led to the incident?
The incident reportedly took place at a Bharat Petroleum outlet in Kerala, though the exact location remains unclear. What led to this reckless maneuver is still unknown, as no official explanation has surfaced regarding whether it was a case of anger or intentional damage, brake failure, or simply a reel created to go viral.
Netizens are sharing this clip with the claim the auto driver sped his vehicle into the pump to demolish and destroy it. “A man “attempted” to demolish a petrol pump using an autorickshaw, Somewhere in Kerala”, netizens captioned this video across internet platforms.
Netizens react
The incident has gathered widespread attention and hilarious reactions. Netizens commented on the clip in a jokingly way, with some comparing the driver’s actions to that of an excavator operator.
They quipped that he must have mistaken his auto-rickshaw for a JCB and attempted a demolition job. “Blud thought he was driving a JCB”, one wrote. “Thought he was a JCB, in reality he was an RCB”, another added.
