Published 3 years ago
A horrific scene which occurred in Hyderabad, India, shows a car launching from the flyover above, directly into a large group of pedestrians. In November of 2019, CCTV cameras located on the flyover and another camera from a shop front captured the moment this car plunged to the ground, striking multiple people, leaving one deceased and multiple injured.
Later reports have stated, the flyover had just recently opened to the public, and that many drivers were unfamiliar with the new route. Clearly depicted by the footage, this driver was exceeding the recommended speeds while driving on the flyover. While rounding the corner, the vehicle lost control, slammed into the barricade, further causing the vehicle to topple over the barricade to a 50+ foot fall.
After the incident, a case relating to charges of causing death due to negligence was registered against the driver. The Cyberabad police officials later indicated that the driver had been driving 104km/hour against the prescribed limit of 40km/hour on the flyover.
