The footage shows the woman falling off the bonnet of the speeding car after being knocked down by the driver.

Even though a man signalled the driver to stop the car as passers-by tried to lift the woman from under the vehicle, the drunk driver, however, in an attempt to escape, accelerated the car and ran over the woman dragging her by a few metres.

The passers-by, however, later managed to stop the vehicle and hand over the accused to the police, who was later arrested.
