Public roads are not meant to test the top speeds of vehicles and some idiots learn this the hard way.
In an utterly disappointed and saddening incident, a BMW driver was testing the top speed of his car when he hits a Maruti WagonR. The impact from the side on the WagonR caused the hatchback to topple over and land on two children sleeping under a flyover killing them on the spot. This incident has been reported from Lodhi Road in New Delhi. Let us check out the specifics of this troubled accident.

Because of high speed, the WagonR overturned and landed directly on 2 children who were sleeping on the roadside under a flyover. Unfortunately, both of them didn’t survive this brutal impact.

There are a few visuals of both the cars after the crash. The entire side profile of the WagonR is crushed due to the direct impact at high speed. There is damage to the side pillars of the WagonR too due to the crash landing. On the other hand, the damage to the front fascia of the BMW is relatively minor because of the angle of impact. WagonR had to bear the large brunt of this impact. The driver of the WagonR reported the incident to the police and we hope that strict action is taken against the driver of the BMW.
