Video of Haryana woman abusing traffic personnel goes viral on the internet

A video of a woman allegedly misbehaving with traffic personnel in Haryana’s Sonipat has gone viral on the internet. The incident happened near Geeta Bhawan Chowk on Wednesday when a woman riding a scooter was stopped by traffic police for driving without a helmet and for moving on the wrong side.

When the police issued a challan, the woman allegedly hurled abuses at the traffic personnel and dared them to initiate action against her.

The Indian Express quoted Inspector (in-charge of city traffic) Ramesh Chander saying, “The woman was stopped for not wearing a helmet and for driving on the wrong side. A woman constable signalled her to stop. Following which, the woman started using abusive language.”

Chander added that the male as well as female traffic personnel were polite to the woman and that there was no provocation from their end.

Ramesh furthur told the daily, “The policemen asked her to show documents, but she was abusive. We told her that she was being challaned for the violation, but she threatened them. In the video, one can see her asking the cops to let her go or else she would set her scooter on fire.”

A traffic offical told her to not take advantage of the fact that she was a lady.

Chander said as far as the woman’s abusive and threatening behaviour was concerned, the police ignored it and did not lodge any complaint against her.
