Another discrepancy found in the video is the text visible near "NH-48" which appears to be unreadable and resembles gibberish - something like "1anic, 1a, 1ngic…" This further confirms that the video is not real, but AI-generated, as such distorted lettering is unusual for official Indian highway signboards, especially National Highways, where standardised fonts and formatting are strictly followed. Hence, it can be concluded that the viral video showing an SUV into an overhead signboard is an AI-generated video.
