The moving car was filmed on a highway in Islamabad, tweep says
A video apparently filmed in Islamabad, Pakistan of a couple getting intimate in the backseat of a moving car on a highway has sparked outrage online.
Seemingly, the clip was initially shared by a twitter user that has now been deleted. Gulf News found the tweet:

The video showed the duo in a compromising position and it seemed to have been filmed from another moving car.
Sharing images of the vehicle, a Twitter user, @sidrakhan73, also claimed that the car was driving roughly: “Today this car was going on M2 (Lahore-Islamabad motorway), he was driving so rough and also over speeding, I need help to find out this vehicle, don't ask for video.”
After being posted, Twitter users shared it thousands of times and had mixed reactions online. While many thought it was highly inappropriate, others were also concerned for the privacy rights of the people filmed.
In the clip, the car’s number plate is clearly shown and many people had an issue with that because they believe that such private information should not be posted online.
User @areebahaaq shared the tweet and said: “Only in Pakistan you can film someone in the privacy of their own car without their consent, post it online and then cry about indecent behaviour […].”
Only in Pakistan you can film someone in the privacy of their OWN car without their consent, post in online and then cry about indecent behaviour. Apni beghairti tou nazar hi nahi aati.

She further clarified that people should “stop taking the law into their hands”. @areebahaaq: “I’m not defending PDA [public display of affection] or public fornication so please don’t @ me with your sermons. Recording someone without their consent is unethical and this lady went as far as to post their private information online in order to defame them. Stop taking the law into your hands.”
Similarly, user @Malik__73 thought both parties were in the wrong: “Both acts are wrong - period.”
While tweep @mxcaltrz thought that the highway is a public space and such acts are prohibited: “Not defending both these acts but ‘privacy of your own car’ doesn't exist if it's on a public road. A dashcam or road surveillance cameras are recording too. The perpetrators should've known that.”
No information whether action was taken against the people involved has been released so far.
