Moments after opening, the 15-second-long video sees their men, riding a speedy bike, trying to zoom past a sluggish truck by overtaking it from the right. However, as soon as their motorcycle changes lanes, a blue incoming bus emerges from the other side and rams against it at a decent speed.
The footage then proceeds to show an intense collision unfolding between the Bus and the bike which throws all three riders onto the ground, leaving them laying in the middle of the road significantly injured. Meanwhile, the bus, after dragging the two-wheeler for a few feet, eventually comes to a halt and the video ends abruptly.
