As per the eyewitness, the auto driver stayed by her side, driving alongside the scooty. In the video, he was seen doing everything he could to help move the scooty forward. At times, he pushed it with his foot, while at others, he held and steadied it with his hands wherever possible.

“Turns out her scooty had broken down and for the next 10 to 15 minutes this man kept driving his auto while helping her move the scooty doing everything he could pushing it with his foot and holding it wherever he could. He stayed with her until they reached a place where she could get some help. I could only record a small part because I was honestly just in the moment and couldn't keep holding my camera,” the user revealed.
