Daijiworld Media Network - Puttur (SP)

Puttur, Nov 3: In an incident which occurred late night on Tuesday November 1, a tanker loaded with edible oil lost balance and got deposited on a car, crushing it completely in the bargain.

In this accident, which occurred near Manjalpadpu in the town on Mani-Mysuru highway, no one was killed, as the car did not have any occupants at the time of the accident. Driver of the tanker, identified as Yallalinga from Bagalkot, escaped with minor injuries.

Jayaprakash from Nehru Nagar had parked his Maruti 800 car by the side of bypass road at around 11 pm on Tuesday near Manjalpadpu. He then went into a shop along with a friend, it is gathered. At that time, a tanker loaded with palmolein oil that was headed towards Madikeri from Mangaluru went out control of its driver, and fell on the parked car.

A case against the driver of the tanker was registered in the traffic police station here relating to this incident.

    OMG! Most lucky survivor. God Bless him with a healthy life ahead without any harm. He had almost a near miss. Fortunately he didnt stopped the car to receive one call on Mobile. We have to learn a lesson from this incident most of us we are stopping at roadside during our drive. Though its rarest amongst heard so far bu certain Gods wishes are not in human's hand and results unfortunate.

    God Bless Jayaprakash and his lucky family.
