Incident serves as a reminder of the importance of road safety and caution
CHANDIGARH: An incident occurred this morning at the intersection of Sector 31 and Sector 32, where a truck with registration number PB 65 A D 9909, en route from Derabassi to Baddi, overturned. The truck was carrying fiber goods at the time of the accident. Fortunately, no casualties were reported, and both the driver and the conductor of the truck emerged unharmed.
Eyewitnesses on the scene reported that the mishap transpired as a car came into view in front of the truck while negotiating a turn at Medical College Chowk. The car abruptly braked upon the signal turning red, causing the truck to lose control and overturn.
Authorities swiftly responded to the situation by reopening the affected route and initiating efforts to remove the truck and its contents. A large hydraulic machine was requisitioned to facilitate the recovery process. Given the early morning timing of the incident, traffic was relatively light at the square, preventing damage to other vehicles in the vicinity.
