In the video, she is riding the motorcycle with both legs on one side, placing one on the rider's footrest and the other on the pillions. To make matters worse, she chose not to wear a helmet.

Sharing the video, an X handle @pulse_pune captioned, "Viral Video from #Pune, the rise in bike stunts for social media fame is alarming. Risking lives for likes isn't worth it. Recently, a girl was seen doing a stunt in #Hadapsar. If unchecked, these dangerous acts could lead to fatal accidents. Authorities must take swift action to ensure safety. Let's #StopStunts and #StaySafe."

The video, posted on June 16 quickly gained attention, reaching over 30,000 views and eliciting a wide range of responses in the comments section.

Reacting to it, a user wrote, "Pune two wheelers are the worst. Never wear a helmet and drive in a zig-zag fashion."

Another user commented, "What action will be taken against this girl? Ask her to WRITE an ESSAY of riding bike sitting one side on it?"

"Today's youth have many skills but not enough opportunities to express themselves properly. They need healthy opportunities to express themselves. There should be places where they can perform their stunts without risking their own or others' lives. The police and RTO should be as strict as possible," reacted a third user.

Another bluntly asked, "What's wrong with these people?"

A frustrated comment read, "Uneducated people are far better than educated ones. These educated fools roam freely on the roads, leaving their brains at home."

Currently, it's unclear if authorities have taken any action regarding this incident. However, in recent times, traffic police nationwide have been actively identifying such violators, often imposing large fines and occasionally seizing vehicles.
