Amid the festive rush, a tourist found an ingenious way to beat the traffic - ditching roads for a drive across a river.
Roads in Himachal Pradesh are witnessing massive traffic congestion as several tourists have started to throng to the hill stations in the state for Christmas and New Year celebrations. And amid this rush, a tourist found an ingenious way to beat the traffic - ditching roads for a drive across a river.
In a video, the tourist was seen driving a Mahindra Thar SUV on the Chandra river in Lahaul Valley. Fortunately, the water level in the river wasn't much as otherwise the drive could even have turned fatal. The video, which has been widely shared on social media, has drawn criticism from the locals.
There was a huge traffic jam at many places on the Lahaul to Manali route last evening when the tourist drove his car into the river.
