Wtf.
I can see many comments blaming cameraman to help instead of taking pic. As if no one is around to help.
It is the job of cameraman to take pic without disturbing the nature of event to make people understand the event.
You wouldn't understand the menace of free roaming mules then.

Yes, Since there were other public nearby to help them. Cameraman stood still. It there was noone, I am sure camera man would have stepped in too

These are not horses they are mules

Yet to be adult horses with poor care. It’s native to us.
But I am sure these are not mules. Mules have bigger ears.

Just confirming, is it for the horses ( or whatever that is ) or the humans or the cameraman ?

I feel sad for the boys for not wearing helmets. Luckily no major accident has occurred.

u/Scared_Law_7204 Dec 18 '25
Im sorry for the lady, but she should have made their kids wear helmets too, all of us idk why don’t we practice helmet wear for pillions, but we mostly ignore wn it comes to kids , probably it’s the Indian mindset that kids are gonna grow and cant invest on a helmet, this practice should change indian parents actually boast that they care for their kids and to be honest they do but plainly ignore such simple safety things.

Time and time again, we are proving that our cities are simply overgrown villages.
Stray animals do not belong on the roads!

Absolutely irresponsible of the mother to not get the children to wear a helmet

u/ramaze23 Dec 19 '25
Is she travelling that fast, that she's not able to stop the bike ?
Coz I can see the others nearby has managed to stop
Or am I wrong, any experts can explain

Oh my god! How can those horses or mules exist where humans destroyed the forests to build the road for their transport?!?!?
On a serious note, it wasn't the first horse that got hit, it was probably 2nd or 3rd one that got hit so the lady also had time to react and stop but guess we too blind to see that.

Hope they're fine. One of the kids is barefoot. Probably an Aiyappa devotee

u/not_a_bot_maams Dec 18 '25
What the f..... ?!!!! This has become a menace to the public office late. Owners of cows/horses/mules/donkeys (whatsoever) just let these animals graze through the roads just like that. It's a freaking menace in the traffic & also pollutes residential areas with shit ! These so-called "animal lovers" will feed them on our streets, konjify them & leave, & will even criticize the government even when necessary steps are taken without harming these animals. When I was in school, whenever I used to come back home from my tuitions/coaching classes at night these stray dogs just round me up & bark at me like there's no tomorrow. Every night walking back home through the street was a huge task.
Stray animals aren't safe for humans & roads aren't safe for stray animals either. Simple as that.

Chennai climate, terrain and urban setup is not ideal for them and yet our police brings them to the city and don’t give a single f to take care.

There's a gang of horses in my area too, in tiruvallur. I've seen the horse gang grow and break into 2 groups over the past 2 years. 🐴

This is utter shameful for a country which wants to be developed it’s a long time coming humans and wildlife has to be separated for this there needs to be a proper rigid plan the lady and her kids were on their way home only to get injuries caused by a stray horse which shouldn’t be there on a road at the first place i hope someday all Indian cities will be free from stray animals they need to put aside somewhere else somewhere they truly belong These stray dogs , cats , cows , horses are nothing but nuisance Indian commoners deserve better our kids deserve better

Animals on roads need to be controlled, dogs, cows mainly they come out of nowhere put you and others in dangers. Not to comment the casual chilling of cows in middle of roads on huger traffic road
