Noida Family's Frightening Taxi Ride Ends with Driver's Arrest

A Disturbing Taxi Journey

A routine taxi ride for a family in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, escalated into a terrifying ordeal when the driver recklessly sped away to avoid police intervention. Despite the family's desperate pleas for him to stop, the driver ignored their requests.

The alarming incident occurred while the family was en route from Greater Noida West to Connaught Place in Delhi. Just ten minutes into their trip, traffic police signaled the taxi to pull over, but the driver accelerated, causing panic among the passengers.

A video capturing the distressing scene has gone viral, showing the family urging the driver to halt. The male passenger can be heard saying, “I will talk, I will save you, I will not let anything happen… please stop, our child is scared.” The woman, in a state of panic, pleaded, “Bhaiya please, drop us, then you go.” However, the driver insisted he was driving 'safely' and would be apprehended if he stopped.

The Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) for Central Noida confirmed, “The individual responsible for the reckless driving has been arrested.”
