Faridabad Police Crack Down on Luxury Car Stunt Menace

New Delhi, January 3, 2026: A series of alarming videos capturing luxury car convoys performing dangerous stunts on the busy roads of Faridabad has recently dominated social media feeds. In late December 2025 and early January 2026, multiple clips surfaced showing groups of youths hanging out of car windows and sitting on sunroofs while moving at high speeds. The footage, largely recorded on the Sector-12 Court Road and the stretch near Amrita Hospital, depicts a blatant disregard for traffic safety, as the vehicles were observed swerving sharply and blocking the path of other commuters to record “reels.”

Swift Action by Faridabad Traffic Police

In response to the viral evidence, the Faridabad Traffic Police has launched a rigorous enforcement drive to penalize the offenders. It was reported that after verifying the registration numbers from the videos, postal challans totaling ₹29,000 were issued to three primary vehicles involved in the Sector-12 incident. One specific luxury car, where a woman and two men were seen perched on the window frames, was slapped with a fine of ₹17,500. Another vehicle, used for recording stunts through the sunroof, was fined ₹5,500, while a third car received a ₹6,000 penalty for similar violations.

Criminal Charges and Institutional Summons

The crackdown has extended beyond mere monetary fines, as the authorities have taken a stern legal stance to deter future “stunt-culture.” It was confirmed by police spokesperson Yashpal Singh that FIRs have been registered under the Motor Vehicles Act for negligent driving and endangering public life. The owners of the identified vehicles have been summoned to local police stations for formal questioning. Furthermore, the police are utilizing CCTV surveillance along the Sector-29 and Greater Faridabad routes to identify other cars that were part of the 12-vehicle convoy seen in subsequent viral clips.

The Rising Toll of ‘Reel’ Obsession

The incident has sparked a wider conversation about the psychological drive behind life-threatening stunts for social media clout. It was remarked by safety advocates that the obsession with “viral fame” is leading many youngsters to treat public highways as private film sets. In one particularly harrowing clip from Ballabgarh, a youth was observed controlling the steering wheel of an open Thar with his feet while his companions recorded the act. Such behaviors have been described by the police as “suicidal,” as they not only risk the lives of the performers but also threaten innocent pedestrians and families on the road.

Strict Monitoring and Future Warnings

To prevent a recurrence of such “road hooliganism,” the Faridabad administration has announced plans to increase patrolling during late-night hours. It was reiterated by senior officials that recurring offenders could face the cancellation of their driving licenses and permanent impounding of their vehicles. The public is being encouraged to report any such reckless behavior through the police’s official social media handles. As the city moves further into 2026, the message from the authorities remains clear: the road is for transport, not for stunts, and the law will always catch up with those who prioritize “likes” over lives.
