Is it that the car was carrying some inflamable material/goods ?
Such a large flare from a car is not normal.

As compared to other images of vehicle catching fire, this is a very large blaze. Also a bit scary.

The pic matches the trailer of some of the Telugu movies !!

Junior NTR movies predominantly use Sumo's and Safari's. This could well be the introductory scene of the Hero !!

I see a quite a few young two wheeler guys these days zigzagging on the road unnecessarily. I fail to understand what they are trying to achieve, its like they don't have a clue about something called "straight" and seem to be all inspired by the serpents. They not only pose grave danger to themselves but to others on the road as well. If you are driving a four wheeler, they are more so a threat as everyone including the cops would blame you even if its their fault if an accident were to happen. Traffic cops are seriously understaffed to keep track of such regular offenders nor do they have the right tools to do so.

Any further details? Looks like someone has edited the photograph too. Incidents of cars catching fire has increased of late i guess, not sure if there could be a common reason.

A friend of mine shared pics of this accident with me. It happened in Panvel, Navi Mumbai. Reason according to sources say that the driver just fell asleep!
Thank god it didn't tip over! Maybe because the front pierced into the railing.

Re: Kawasaki ZX10R & ZX14R : Launch Report and Pics

Got this image on WhatsApp a couple of days ago. Apparently a young chap from Delhi / NCR crashed his ZX14. No mention about his health / condition. Bike seems to be gone.

Quite bad, i suspect major under body and engine damage. Engine oil seems to have leaked too. I hope it didn't tip over until help arrived.

Nope my brother. This is REAL. The vehicle actually had met with an accident with another vehicle, my friend was driving and noticed a petrol tanker too involved, but I am not sure what made this vehicle go up such huge flames.

All I know at this point of time is my friend was traveling on the same stretch and a km away he saw flames in the air where he was actually headed. He was coming back to Bangalore. Traffic was halted for a while, but erratic people/behind wheels started to break and passed through the accident spots. This is the pic captured while he had crossed the spot. There was a another vehicle involved, which my friend quoted as a Tanker. He couldn't say it with confidence though.

Pic taken by Mobile, edited using inbuilt app to give in more dramatic pic. But, this incident is as REAL as it gets to be.

Ironically, the words on the rear of the pickup vehicle (just above the hit zone) states - "Jeene Do" in Hindi.
Translate to English - "Let me Live" !!

That is quite a bad crash.
I20 Crdi it is, probably with a tuning box fitted ,looks like one lying on the ground, took the curve too fast with 4 on board , with soft suspension , under-steered? Just guesses.

Any idea which team's crew they were?
Condolences to the family.

Horrible crash indeed. Condolence to the family of the deceased. Proves that driving fast better be left to race tracks only. Indian roads have a lot of unknowns to be taking chances and its very difficult for a human brain to process so much information in such less time.
