A car driver hit and dragged a toll plaza employee who hung to the vehicle's bonnet for almost six kilometres at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour on Saturday in Gurguram.
The car was asked to stop and pay at the toll plaza in Kherki Daula toll but the driver accelerates his vehicle, brushes past the toll barrier and refuses to stop even as the attendant comes out of his booth.
Disregarding the attendant who jumps onto the bonnet of the car, the driver speeds away on the Gurugram- Manesar highway with the toll employee hanging on.
"You'll stop my car? Even the police doesn't stop my car," the driver of the car told me after he refused to pay the toll, toll attendant Arun Kumar told ANI.
Kumar said he was dragged after he tried to stop a Innova car which collided with the toll barrier and sped away from Kherki Daula toll in Gurugram.
The whole incident was captured on CCTV camera installed at the booth.
