Jaipur: Two youths sustained injuries when an SUV, in which they were traveling, veered off the road and plunged down the Delhi-Ajmer express highway on Saturday evening.
The incident occurred shortly after 7 pm when six friends were travelling in the SUV from highway number 14 towards the 200-feet highway, said Station House Officer (SHO) of Accident Police Station (West), Narayan Singh. Singh told TOI that the vehicle somehow lost control near Khirni Phatak.
“It spun around, crossed into the opposite lane, and crashed through the railing before tumbling down,” he said. Tayyab, who was driving the SUV, was injured in the accident along with one other passenger.
“They have sustained minor injuries. The rest of the four passengers escaped unscathed,” Singh added. As the car plummeted down the highway, locals promptly rushed to their help and also informed the authorities.
The police control room immediately dispatched a team from the Kardhani and traffic police to the scene. The injured were rushed to the hospital, and the SUV was removed from the road to resume traffic flow. The accident caused damage to the front and rear portions of the SUV.
“The car was intact besides some damage to the front portion and other parts of the SUV,” said an official.
