In Short

• CCTV footage shows the scooter suddenly changing lanes on a curved road
• The impact flung all three riders off the two-wheeler violently

A young man was killed, and two others were critically injured in a road accident in Jaipur after the scooter they were riding collided head-on with an SUV. The entire incident, which occurred on Thursday evening, was captured on a nearby CCTV camera.

The security camera footage shows a black SUV and a scooter travelling on a curved stretch of a two-lane road. The scooter is seen abruptly leaving its lane and swerving into the wrong side of the road.

Because of its seemingly excessive speed, the rider lost control of the two-wheeler. The vehicle then crashed into an oncoming SUV.

The impact of the collision was so significant that the trio on the scooter were thrown into the air. Visuals show one of them launching nearly 10 feet into the air before landing head-first.

Meanwhile, another one fell a short distance in front of the SUV. The car came to a complete stop immediately after the crash, as the three men lay motionless on the road.

The collision caused immediate chaos on the road as a large crowd of commuters and local residents gathered at the scene. Passersby quickly alerted the authorities.

Police personnel arrived at the scene shortly afterwards and, with assistance from the locals, rushed the three bloodied men to a hospital.

One of them was declared brought dead by the doctors. The remaining two individuals have been hospitalised and are undergoing treatment for the severe injuries they sustained in the accident.
