This is the moment an allegedly drunk driver rammed into a petrol pump in northern India as an attendant looked on helplessly.

Footage filmed by a CCTV camera at Saluja petrol station in Mungeli in central India shows an SUV driving in to fill up on April 12.

The driver loses control of the vehicle and slams straight into one of two fuel pumps, knocking it over.

Petrol station workers caught the driver and three other men all of whom they claimed were drunk.

Business owner, Shailendra Saluja, filed a complaint with local police who arrested all the accused.

Saluja said he had suffered a loss of Rs three lakhs or 2,903 GBP.
