The incident has therefore become another reminder that attempting to create viral content on public roads can have consequences far beyond social-media attention.
Road safety should come first
Social-media popularity lasts only a moment, while the consequences of a road accident can be permanent.
Motorcyclists and passengers are expected to follow traffic rules, wear appropriate protective equipment and avoid behaviour that compromises control of the vehicle.
The reported action in Noida highlights the importance of enforcing these rules, particularly on roads where vehicles travel at high speeds.
