Driving on Indian highways used to be about dodging potholes and cattle. Now, drivers have a new hazard to worry about: “The Reel Gang.”
A disturbing trend is taking over our scenic routes. Influencers and wannabe stars are treating active highways as their personal film studios, blocking traffic for that perfect Instagram shot. And when drivers honk? The entitlement is shocking.
In this viral dashcam footage (timestamped August 2025), a driver confronts a group sitting right in the middle of a highway lane. When he asks, “Marna hai kya?” (Do you want to die?), the response isn’t an apology. It’s a dare: “Kuchal ke dikhao” (Run us over and show me).
The “Kuchal Ke Dikhao” Entitlement 😡
This single phrase highlights why dashcams are no longer a luxury—they are a necessity.
“If I didn’t have a camera, and God forbid I touched them, the mob would have lynched me,” says Rajesh, a regular commuter on the Mumbai-Pune expressway (name changed). “These kids know that without video proof, the big car is always at fault.”
It’s not just about accidents anymore. It’s about protection from false accusations, staged stunts, and the sheer audacity of people who think the road belongs to their ring light.
The Dashcam Defense: Your Only Witness 📹
According to mechanics in Delhi’s Karol Bagh, dashcam sales have spiked by 200% in 2026. The primary driver? Fear.
A cab driver in Bangalore shared, “I installed a Qubo dashcam last week. Not for insurance, but because I saw a video of a girl jumping on a car bonnet for a reel. I need proof that I didn’t hit her.”

Conclusion: Protect Yourself
The road is public property, but common sense is private property—and sadly, many don’t own it. Until strict laws curb these highway stunts, a dashcam is your best friend, your lawyer, and your eyewitness.
Drive safe, and keep recording.
