For some reason Youtube is not allowing to upload this video. If the above link works - this could be one of the most hilarious accidents seen in India!

Worth the click and the wait
This is a very old incident. And I guess it was posted here.

What are the odds of the tractor falling into the hole? This was seriously hilarious. The owner must be devastated, seeing his tractor go from one accident to another disaster.

As the saying goes, out of the frying pan into the fire!!!

The possible cause for the second incident could have been, leaving the tractor in gear with the ignition on, which got the engine started. The tractor seems to drive itself on plain ground as well.

This is a worldwide phenomenon whenever a vehicle is recovered from a rollover in sloping roads. The rescue personnel miss securing the vehicles brakes or by chocking the wheels and once the vehicle comes back onto its wheels, it rolls away into another accident, sometimes far more devastating than the first one. If it can happen elsewhere, in India its no surprise. Probably the tractor driver even forgot to turn off ignition completely in the midst of the accident and the tractor engine fired up to life. This can happen in any car too especially petrol cars if the key is still in ON position and the car in gear, for a manual.

re: Accidents in India | Pics & Videos

This happened at Rambagh Petrol Pump in Jaipur.
I got this on telegram and found it someone has uploaded on Youtube.
As per the date on the footage, it happened on 21st July. No further details.

EDIT: It appears its not Rambagh or might not even be Jaipur as the Rambagh fuel pump doesn't have any cut in the road divider in front of it.

Man, that looks bad!
  1. The Ecosport looks running faster than the driver could handle on that road
  2. The driver couldn't control it after seeing the bike
  3. It appears he tried to swerve & hit A-pedal as an instinct instead of brakes, after hitting the biker
I feel bad for the fuel attendants though.
I hope they're okay.

Feel terrible for the fuel attendants. Hope both of them are ok.

The Eco-Sport was not very fast it was almost at similar speeds to what the traffic on that street is doing (eg. Bus). The biker riding without a helmet on the wrong side of the road deserved what he got. The Eco-sport accelerated after hitting the bike.

Post the accident the Eco-Sport driver either looks injured or is disabled (not from the accident) looking at his hands and the way he walked.

I agree.
But if you see the first 2 seconds, the EcoSport was not even in the left lane to begin with, but used a part of shoulder too. The driver would have slept behind the wheels to have arrived at the left end of the road at 50-60kmph and in panic accelerated and swerved after hitting the wrong side motorcyclist.

Based on the impact and aftermath, the fuel attendant who didn't get up after falling suffered from serious head injuries, chances of being fatal. I pray that he recovers soon.

Even I got the same feeling that the Eco-sport driver appears disabled (handicapped). But if this is the case, is he allowed to drive ? I think physical fitness to operate the controls of a vehicle is must to obtain DL.

But then we all know how a DL can be obtained in India.

re: Accidents in India | Pics & Videos

This is CCTV footage of an accident in Karimganj in Assam. It looks like an overtaking manoeuvre gone wrong. Tempo Travellers are inherently unstable and this results in them toppling. Apparently there were about 10 casualties.

There was a cyclist which appeared at 00:12 on the other side of the road and was never seen again after the TTs rolled over into a ditch. I am sure that poor soul may be one of the casualties. I still hope he is OK. He was at no fault.

Looks as if the trailing TT skidded while applying the breaks to avoid the three wheeler at the start of the video. The result was a pit manoeuvre to the one in front. The three wheeler definately moved to end of the road seeing the TT coming towards him.

As per the news report they found a school bag, but no child has been rescued or body recovered yet, so the cyclist must be a kid. Another young life lost due to a rash driver.
