According to a PTI report, seven tourists were injured. "The driver could not see the ditch behind, and the vehicle fell into it injuring people including the driver," the news agency reported.
The hair-raising footage has gone viral on social media, racking up thousands of views on Twitter. Commenting on the video, a user wrote, "Yes.. Time that safaris are regulated. Have seen videos of gypsies being available close to tigers in parks putting stress on these wild animals. Tourism maybe helping generate revenue for protection of wild life, but there have to be clear rules. Off late, it's stretching a lot."
"Nature settles every things accordingly. What we give to the nature same we receive," the second user commented.
The third user wrote, "When the people in a safari jeep are all standing up and the driver can't look behind directly through the middle of the middle rear view mirror, it's absolutely criminal to have the side rear view mirrors removed. Safaris have to backtrack so many times, why drive blind?"
