The incident happened around 11.20 AM when a bus, belonging to a private city bus service, reached the toll plaza and the toll collector asked the driver to pay the toll of Rs 60, but he refused to pay and tried to flee, they said.
On seeing that driver was trying to flee without pay toll, the senior manager, Yadav signalled him to stop but the driver tried to crush him under the wheels but Yadav jumped aside to save himself, they said.
In another incident, a toll collector was manhandled in his toll plaza office allegedly by 6-7 persons after he asked a truck driver to pay toll fee, police said.
The incident, which was also captured on CCTV, happened on Friday when toll collector Manoj Kumar asked the truck driver to pay the toll fee, they said.
The driver refused to pay saying he was a local and also showed Kumar a registration certificated (RC) of the vehicle, as locals are exempted from paying toll fee.
Gurgaon police PRO Hawa Singh said, in both the incidents, police have registered case against unidentified persons and the driver.
"We are examining CCTV footage given by the toll staff and are investigating the matter, as of now no arrest has been made," he said.
