In a dramatic incident on Jaipur’s Ajmer Road, a driverless car burst into flames, causing chaos among motorists on Saturday. The flaming vehicle, which had been abandoned moments earlier by the driver, sped down an elevated road towards Sudarshanpura Pulia, eventually crashing into a parked motorcycle and a road divider. Thankfully, no injuries were reported, despite the intense scene.

The driver, identified as Jitendra Jangid, noticed smoke emanating from the car’s air conditioning system while descending the elevated road. Alarmed, he stopped the vehicle and exited to investigate, discovering the engine on fire. The flames spread rapidly, damaging the car's handbrake and causing the vehicle to roll driverless down the road.
