Bantwal: Driver loses control of car as it climbs atop underground drainage


Daijiworld Media Network – Bantwal (MS)

Bantwal, Jan 1: A car climbed over an underground drainage as the driver lost control over the vehicle he was driving at Soorikumeru near Mani under Vittal police station limits.

The car was Mangaluru bound from Bengaluru. The vehicle hit the retainer wall that was built to prevent the hill collapse. After hitting the wall, the car climbed on top of the underground drainage and came to a halt.

The car was totally mangled in the mishap. However, the passengers escaped with minor injuries.

The details of the injured people is yet to be known. There were reportedly three women including the driver in the vehicle. All of them sustained minor injuries.

    I see many lady drivers on the highway, which is good from the perspective of economy and also for the fact that they are standing shoulder to shoulder with men. Those that are new to the driving experience can be sometimes frustrating, by and large, I am sure this would be viewed as a welcome development by the car companies. This accident is a rare occurrence I think involving a female driver.

    Unscientific road designs , where as in ME and foreign countries temporary roads are well designed and protected for motorists and pedestrian both till the actual road is reconstructed or renovated .
