These days, several people are seen engaging in rather risky road stunts, thereby putting their own lives and the lives of others in danger. One such video has surfaced on social media, showing two men drinking alcohol while sitting on a moving car's roof in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad.
After several Twitter users shared the video and urged authorities to take action, the three men, including the person who was driving the car have been arrested.
In the video shared by a Twitter user, both men could be seen drinking on top of a black-coloured car, that was moving on the road. They were also spotted carelessly discarding the used cans on the road, shouting and waving to passersby.

Recently, Delhi police shared a similar video on Twitter, to deter people who indulge in risky driving practices, and promote road safety. The video showed a man riding a bike with two women passengers as they tried to recreate the Jaane Nahi Denge Tujhe track from the movie 3 Idiots featuring Aamir Khan, R Madhavan, and Sharman Joshi. None of them were seen wearing helmets.
