Vizag Auto Driver Torches Son’s Bike After Multiple Fines

Fed up with his son’s rash driving and multiple fines, a father from Pendurthi, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, torched his son’s motorcycle, which he had bought with his hard-earned money. 

As per reports, an auto driver from Bantaka Colony near Vepagunta has two sons. About a year ago, he bought his son a bike after the boy pestered him, saying he needed it for college. Relenting to the pressure, he bought it. The boy, with the newfound joy of owning a two-wheeler, started riding



out with friends and going to college.

He also ignored traffic rules and met with an accident a while ago, for which the father had to shell out Rs one lakh in hospital expenses. As the multiple fines piled up, the tipping point came when a challan for triple riding was received.

The father lost his patience, and in a fit of rage that his son had become reckless because of the bike he bought, he took the vehicle away from the colony and set it on fire.
