    RIP 🙏!! This car could be considered one of the safest on our roads with seven airbags and speed beeper when speed exceeds 80, and again beyond 100kmph; powerful ABS; considering the condition of this car, and the poles having gotten uprooted one can imagine the speed at which it was cruising, either dozed, got a sudden attack or ???; the manufacturer might be definitely compromising on quality here vis a vis those being manufactured in advanced nations with very strict safety standards, for obvious reasons!!

    I am surprised to see the extent of damage to the Mercedes GLA 220. Imagine the speed of that car. Cause of the damage is over speed .... Mangalore drivers rarely practice defensive driving.

    Shall we call this twist of fate or avoidable tragedy?... Most times we dive into conclusions... He may well have been at very high speed looking at the brand of his car... However when time calls even the best German car cannot protect lives... RIP to the departed soul....

    Even Mercedes isn't safe enough if you overspeed. A good driver always knows where he can overspeed and where he cannot.
