Watch: Man lifts WagonR with bare hands to make space for his SUV

A video of a man has gone viral after he physically picked up a wrongly parked Maruti Suzuki WagonR to make space for his SUV. The video taken by the co-passenger shows the WagonR blocking a narrow street from where the SUV was passing. After the co-passenger suggests that they would not be able to pass and that they should go back, the driver got down from the SUV and proceeded to pick up the hatchback with his bare hands. Take a look at the video to see what happened.

As we just saw, the WagonR was easily picked up and moved aside by the SUV driver, from the vehicle’s lighter rear end. The Maruti Suzuki WagonR is front wheel drive hatchback and has a kerb weight of up to 850 kg. Being a FWD, the WagonR is heavier on the front when compared to the rear end where most of the weight comes from the fuel tank. With ever-rising numbers of car buyers in the country, parking has become a major issue in many urban cities. Inappropriate parking incidents such as this are common and inconvenience other road users.

For yourself, the best solution is to turn your car around and find another way or talk to nearby residents to locate the driver of the car and request them to move the vehicle.
