Overview
- Video from the scene shows the car leaving the roadway, kicking up a large dust cloud, and coming to rest in an open area beside the highway.
- Locals and passersby rushed to the vehicle and helped free the occupants, including a front-seat passenger who quickly checked on those in the back.
- Reports state all five people were rescued alive without serious injuries, though footage shows a crying child and an elderly woman who appeared hurt.
- The car sustained heavy damage in the crash, which occurred Monday near Nuh in Haryana on the Delhi–Mumbai Expressway.
- Authorities have not released findings on the cause, and media accounts cite audio of a passenger asking the driver if he had dozed off; recent fatal crashes on high-speed corridors have renewed safety concerns.
