‘They fed me samosa’: Bengaluru CEO uses Gemini, dashcam to outsmart a road rage biker
Initially inclined to let the matter go for his own peace of mind, the CEO changed his stance after noticing the deep dent left on his car. Figuring that a lesson needed to be taught, he approached the Koramangala police station armed with the video evidence.
When a Bengaluru CEO found himself at the receiving end of a violent road-rage incident, he turned to Google’s AI tool Gemini for help. Siddharth Dialani, the CEO, claimed the biker mistakenly believed his car had brushed against his two-wheeler. The situation escalated when the biker forced Dialani to stop, kicked the side of his car, and rammed into it from behind.
Fortunately, the incident was captured by the car’s dashcam. Initially, Dialani was hesitant to pursue the matter, but after noticing the damage, he decided to teach the aggressive biker a lesson. To formalize his complaint, Dialani used Gemini to draft a strongly worded police complaint, which helped him secure a formal acknowledgment from the authorities.
The Koramangala police used the dashcam footage to identify the biker and his vehicle number, and they tracked down his phone number using their database. As they awaited the biker’s appearance in court, the officers even offered the CEO a samosa, a moment he described as reminiscent of a movie scene. Upon meeting the biker at the police station, he initially denied responsibility, but the compelling evidence and the threat of an FIR (First Information Report) and criminal case forced him to issue a written apology and pay for the damages.
The CEO commended the police for their professional conduct and revealed that the matter was settled without any bribes. Dialani jokingly referred to Gemini as his new lawyer, praising its role in resolving the dispute.
