A man from Punjab with both legs amputated works as Zomato delivery person

A gentleman from Punjab lost both his legs in an accident years ago but had to start life afresh by toiling as a Zomato delivery man primarily due to extreme financial stress within the family! 

He deserves the Carrot in CarrotNStick.

Maruti Swift PB30V1218 crashed while recording video at 180 kmph in Punjab somewhere in Punjab in December 2021

The inevitable aftermath of trying to achieve the maximum possible speed by a 'late' fun loving owner of PB30V1218 while videographing the moment holding onto a mobile phone in one hand could not be averted. 

Nobody can deny that he exceeded 180 kmph. 

See the next post of photos of what exactly happened after the video ended abruptly. 

He has left behind a documentary evidence of his belief that: 

- only fools are involved in road accidents, and that 

- he was an exceptional talent. 

The guy was awesome! Let's cherish the fact that the potential killer is no more. 

The macabre incident happened somewhere in Punjab in early December 2021. 

No RIP for this guy who was out on a killing spree. No sympathies for such murderers on the road. A bloated ego killed him. 

An erstwhile journalist friend of mine has rightfully pointed out ...... "sinners become saints in afterlife"! 

P.S: The blaring Punjabi song which was playing in the car's music system while the guy was recording his own act of stupidity when he lost control and crashed, has been muted on purpose after receiving instructions from Facebook.

Even after the Ministry of Road Transport  and Highways (MORTH) allowed resumption of collection of toll charges on National Highways after Lockdown 1.0 in end April 2020, there's mass scale indiscipline and lawlessness being resorted to by private bus operators at Ladowal Toll Plaza near Ludhiana, Punjab.
The bus drivers are not paying the toll charges and going ahead by breaking down the boom barriers and other items of road furniture for obstruction 😠
The lawlessness has been reported to the police, but no action has been taken against the offenders till mid July 2020. Goons with firearms are also threatening the toll plaza employees regularly.

Huge cobra found it's way inside driver's cabin of a truck during the lockdown and hid for 1 month

A huge poisonous cobra found it's way inside driver's cabin of an Ashok Leyland trailer truck during the lockdown and hid for over 1 month. The truck had driven from Chhattisgarh to Punjab to load rice grains but had to remain stationary because of the lockdown.
After the announcement of Unlock 1.0, rescuers managed to bring it out without any harm to the driver or the cobra.
Be careful when you or you dear ones are seated in the car, especially if it's after a long gap.
