According to the passenger, who later shared footage of the ordeal on social media, the driver instead accelerated, driving recklessly toward Delhi. The cab, carrying a man, his wife, and their child en route to Connaught Place, allegedly collided with another vehicle during the chase. In the video, the family appears visibly shaken, with the child crying audibly in the background, as they plead with the driver to slow down.

The victim claimed the driver ignored repeated requests to stop or reduce speed. The clip’s circulation online has sparked widespread public outrage and renewed concerns about passenger safety in app-based and private cab services.
