A video showing a cyclist being struck by a car has triggered intense debate among users on social media platform X, raising concerns over road safety, traffic discipline, and accountability.
The clip, shared by an account named Drive Smart, captures a sequence of events that culminate in a collision on what appears to be a winter afternoon.
The incident was recorded on December 31, though the exact location of the accident has not been specified in the footage. The condition of the cyclist remains unknown, and details surrounding the circumstances of the crash could not be independently verified. The video was shared with the caption, “Nothing will change until we change.”
The footage shows a relatively low-traffic highway, with buses moving along one side of the road. A road divider bearing an emergency contact sign for number 112 is visible. In the clip, a cyclist is seen slowly attempting to cross the highway through a gap in the divider. At the same time, a car approaches at speed in the lane. Moments after the vehicle turns, it collides with the cyclist, sending him airborne before he lands several metres away. The clip ends with the driver stopping and appearing visibly shocked.

The video has continued to draw widespread attention online, with users debating the apparent failure to adhere to basic road safety norms. Many have argued that better highway design, stricter enforcement of traffic regulations, and increased public awareness are essential to prevent such accidents in the future.
The incident has once again highlighted the vulnerability of cyclists on high-speed roads and the broader challenges of ensuring safety for all road users.
