The comments section reveals a mixture of relief and concern. One user expressed worry about the women’s well-being, noting a visible injury. Others expressed gratitude that the incident didn’t result in serious harm, while some speculated on the cause of the skid, suggesting the possibility of oil on the road. The swift actions of the car driver undoubtedly prevented a far more serious outcome.
This incident highlights the inherent risks involved in two-wheeled travel, particularly at higher speeds. The unpredictability of road conditions and the potential for sudden loss of control underscore the importance of safe riding practices and vigilance.
This near-miss is not an isolated incident. Another video, shared on Instagram by @_hamza_murtaza_, depicts a car dangerously sliding close to the edge of a gorge on icy roads in Solang Valley, Manali.

In contrast to these near-misses, a more tragic incident near Indira Gandhi International Airport saw a 23-year-old man and his female companion injured when their scooter was struck by a dumper truck. This stark contrast underscores the range of potential outcomes in road accidents, reinforcing the need for greater caution and awareness for all road users.
