Toyota Fortuner Driver's Reckless Ice Drifts At Hill Station Leaves Locals Angry [Video]
Most people visit hill stations to relax and enjoy the calming weather, watch snowfall and snow-capped mountains, and eat good food. However, there are some hooligans who reach such destinations and destroy the peace that everyone has come to experience. Recently, a video has gone viral online in which a Toyota Fortuner driver was seen drifting his SUV recklessly on ice.
The video showing this Toyota Fortuner drifting on ice has been shared on Instagram by Ritik Yadav 1001 on their page. It starts off with a black Toyota Fortuner Sigma 4x4 performing a 360-degree drift. We can see that the driver’s side door of this SUV was open while it was drifting on the ice. Soon after this, the driver turns the vehicle around and the door closes automatically.
He then continues drifting in circles, and it can be seen that a number of other people were watching this SUV perform these stunts. Finally, the video ends with the driver performing an infinity drift. Where exactly this video has been shot has not been mentioned. However, it could most likely be in Manali, Himachal Pradesh.
It can also be noted that the registration plate of this SUV still has a temporary number. The original registration number of this vehicle is currently unknown. Now, whether the authorities have taken any action against this Fortuner driver or not has also not been reported.
In the last few months, we have seen numerous similar cases in which tourists have been seen doing reckless stunts at famous spots. Recently, a video showed a Mahindra Scorpio-N parked at ice-covered Zero Point in the valley near the Indo-China border in Sikkim. In this short clip, a Scorpio-N with a Bihar registration number was seen parked in the spot where only people on foot are allowed to go.
It was reported that when locals confronted the driver and other passengers of this particular Scorpio-N, they were abused by them. As a result, the person who recorded the video requested the Sikkim Tourism Board and Sikkim Police to take strict action against the owner of this vehicle. Now, whether any action has been taken against the owner has not been reported.
Prior to this, another video became viral online in which three shirtless men were seen standing out of a Hyundai Creta in Sissu Valley, Himachal Pradesh. What happened in this video was that these three men were standing out of the panoramic sunroof of the Creta and were holding glasses filled with alcohol and dancing. Meanwhile, other people stuck in traffic were staring at them doing this stupid stunt.
Soon after this, the video showed a Himachal Pradesh police officer recording a video of these idiots doing this stunt on a public road, following which he stopped this Hyundai Creta and started scolding the driver as well as the passengers.
Due to such incidents, the Sissu Gram Panchayat has completely suspended tourism for 40 days, starting from January 20 till February 28. Between these dates, no tourists will be allowed in Sissu village, which is situated in the Chandra Valley of Lahaul-Spiti, Himachal Pradesh.
