In the latest video, a truck rams into a Skoda Kushaq from behind at high speed. Skoda is known for making some of the safest cars in the world. The Kushaq represents a pivotal moment that transformed Skoda’s position in our market.

The Kushaq emerged as the inaugural vehicle in this strategic shift and marked a significant triumph for the Czech automaker. It boasts a full 5-star safety rating at the Global NCAP in adult and child protection categories. Here are the details of this latest incident.

What We Think
We try to raise awareness among Indian car buyers regarding investing in vehicles with high safety ratings, as well as following the traffic protocols. Most car accidents take place in the country due to the negligence of the drivers to adhere to the traffic laws. It is high time we start respecting and strictly following these regulations. That is the only way to make our roads safer than they currently are. Apart from that, we must report miscreants to the authorities who are flouting these regulations. Let us pledge to be responsible drivers.
