> Road disputes are increasingly turning violent across India, raising questions about status and impunity among drivers of expensive cars. In Gurugram, a 27-year-old biker, Shivani Chauhan, was allegedly chased and hit by a car; police arrested the driver on charges including attempted murder and stalking. Other incidents involving SUVs in Hassan and Dehradun also ended in deaths and serious injuries.
