Team-BHP - Accidents in India

Just as I got back to my car, I saw a Red Wagon R in similar condition a few meters away. Will get the pics tomorrow. This is a separate accident.

Safe Driving everyone!!

@ echautnote: how did the city manage that? 4WD SUVs are better for mumbai rains!

he he he ... the driver probably never assumed that THAT particular spot was a slush hole. The section is supposed to be firm for cars to come and stop.

Gosh! What hit the Santro? OR what did it hit ? Seems to me like it was doing some serious speed.

Santro looks like something hit it from the side-front when it was stationery (or was at a very low speed). If it were moving, it would have gone flying and would have got hit all around or gone for a spin.

That is one bad crash!!

If anything hit a stationary car as light as this one, so hard, the car would fly off anyways, backwards. Hence I think it was the Santro that hit a heavy vehicle and jammed in. So the localized damage.

Maybe not a truck, a divider or a low concrete structure?

OT: That reminds me, when traveling from Vashi towards Mumbai, if you take the right just before Mankhurd, the link road to Eastern Express Highway/ Chedda Nagar, towards the end of that road, some idiot (Cidco) has built a solid cement block right into the middle of right-most lane! Be careful there.

Very unscientific traffic system if you ask me.

People be careful while driving this stretch. Excellent surface but very dangerous.

I have seen many heavy vehicles crash at this ghat section underestimating the tarmac, hence felt that these bumps were of welcome move. Slowing down traffic at this place is a must.. esp while going towards Salem from Krishnagiri

This section is also very curvy. So you can loose the traction very easily.

Oh!Thats one of a very bad accident!
Hope the driver and other occupants inside were safe.
Waiting for the Wagon-R pics.

BTW, In this thread I've seen so many bad accident, Hope the rash drivers and the people who drink & drive take some lesson from this and soon we get to see no such pic in this thread. :)

Tomorrow.... promise!! Th idea of this thread is most probably just that, to put sense into rash drivers.

I think that is the same reason the police leave these accident cars in full public view.

Thats some rear ending. Was it being charged by mad blind bulls or what ?
I shudder to think of the jolt the passengers must have received had there been anyone present in the vehicle at that time.
