The spot where the mishap occurred is known to be dangerous. Just two days ago, another car fell into a pit after the driver lost control at the same location. High speeds on the highway, coupled with a sharp bend, often cause vehicles to lose control at this spot. Local residents, including a junior engineer working at the substation, have expressed concern about the safety of waiting for buses on the roadside at this location.
