Videos of woman performing bike stunts goes viral, cops begin probe
Lucknow: A series of viral videos showing a woman performing dangerous stunts on motorcycles on a busy Lucknow highway has prompted traffic police to initiate action.
The videos, shared by social media user Anurag Pandey on X (formerly Twitter), show a woman, now being referred to online as #VaishuRider, riding various bikes without a helmet and performing stunts such as riding hands-free at high speed.
One of the most concerning aspects highlighted by users is her repeated use of black tape to conceal the number plates of the motorcycles, seemingly to avoid identification by enforcement agencies.
"
She's risking not just her life but others' too. She's masking her number plate and riding recklessly. Will the authorities act?" Pandey wrote, tagging the Uttar Pradesh Police and Lucknow Traffic Police in his post.
The undated videos appear to be shot across multiple stretches of the highway and feature different motorcycles, suggesting repeated offences. Background music has been added to the clips, indicating that they were possibly edited and shared for social media engagement.
The Lucknow Police said the matter has been forwarded to the @lucknowtraffic police for necessary action.
Traffic authorities said a probe was on to identify the rider and trace the vehicles.
"These kinds of stunts are not just violations of traffic rules but also endanger public safety. We are reviewing the footage and will take strict legal action," said a senior traffic police official.
