Shockingly, the speedometer of the SUV reads 100 km/h, which is illegal on many counts. Firstly, a single-lane road can’t have that speed limit. Secondly, during rains, one must drive below the speed limit to prevent phenomena like aquaplaning and skidding. That is exactly what ends up happening here. The SUV skids off the surface and topples over after hitting some things on the side of the road. Thankfully, no person was walking on the street. Otherwise, he/she would have sustained severe injuries.

Talking about the damage to the SUV, it has experienced a lot of dents and deformations in various body parts, including the side section, the tail section, and even the front fascia. The information regarding the injuries to the driver is not available. The SUV is seen being towed away for repair on the back of a truck. We advise our readers to never overspeed and drive extremely carefully during rain. It is high time we become responsible drivers and start following traffic rules vehemently so that such incidents could be avoided.
