Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
A flyover here is under-construction and it was supposed to be terror-attack resistant and bomb-explosion resistant but sadly that damn thing couldnt take on a 8cm rainfall yesterday.
I was under the flyover when the bridge collapses right in about 5-6 feet in front of me. I reversed the car like a maniac ramming into the cars behind me and pushing them back with me. One of the stone slabs fell onto the front of my car crushing the bumper and the head lights but iNs@nE got out safe and sound with no scratches at all.
But the sad news is - the cars in front of me didnt get the chance to see the flyover collapse and 6 cars and 3 taxis got crushed under the stone slabs killing 25 people and injuring over 30 (especially those who were taking shelter under the flyover from the rain) ..
It all happened right in front of my eyes and strangely I was not in any shock. We at the back immediately ran and helped out those who were trapped underneath and I took 2 people to a nearby hospital both of whom are still in a critical condition. Hope they live.
They say it happened because of bad construction and now charges are being held against the contractors.
Oh yeah - Am still here and rockin like eva.. :icon6:
P.S: My car is on the other side of the pics. A Black Honda Civic ... :( ..It saved me life. 2.1 Dura Torq FTW!
Some Pics: I didnt click. Lost my N95 in the crash. :(

wow just about lost a good rz member
DAMM YOU MOTHER NATURE
Re: Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
wow ins@ne that's crazy. I think its most amazing that you had enough wits about you to be able to reverse your car and get away from it, pushing other cars back maybe saving them too.
I'm not sure totally what a flyover is, but the photos clearly show major destruction. Glad you made it out :)

Re: Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
Knowing me, I probly would've died. I either would have been too drunk or too tired to have moved out of the way. It's a good thing you weren't neither drunk or tired dude. Glad you're ok.
Re: Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
Holy crap, if you died that would of been very troubling, and we would have never known. Thank god for your spider-man senses.

:(....damn...
well praise to those who made it out safely. Always glad to see that people survived, especially you Insane ;)
Re: Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
Tragic accident, i hope whoever is accountable gets fired. Most likely itll be the low guys who get the boot though and the city officals who oked it will get away scot free :/
Just wondering, who has to pay for your car getting crushed? I presume the city builders etc, but id guess that is a slow process of courts and stuff. 0o Should of given yourself some bruises to get a bigger settlement :p

Well, I got insurance. So most of that will be covered by that. So nothing much to worry about the card. And getting some bruises on me wouldnt really count much compared to the 25 people who died and the other 30 who are still critical eh..?
The Government is giving around $10,000 for the dead. This is India mate. This is how things happen out here. And as soon as the incident happened, all the opposition party members popped in and started blaming the standing government blaming them for the incident and bringing down of the government .. Somethings will never change.

I guess our governments are alot different, if it were me id try and get some money from the government. Destroying the front of my car and almost killing me could easily lead to post traumatic stress, easily a few weeks off at the very least. :p
But yeah blaming the government will happen, even if it was only one or two bad apples who caused it. *Should we used cement or cookie dough.* *Mmmm cookies, lets go with that*
True. But the government wont worry much about all that now. Now all they would try and do is somehow put it on the rain and try and make up the accounts for all that huge amounts of cash they kept for themselves. Politics!!
And thnx a lot for caring. :icon6:
Re: Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
Thats fucking disgusting, I swear some some contract workers think they can get away with doing half assed jobs all the time, and only regretting it when its to late and people die or get injured under there poor construction.
Sorry you had to go through all that man, its deffinatly and experience you won't forget for the rest of your life. Glad to know you made it out in one piece.
Re: Fly Over Collapses: iNs@nE Still Lives
Wow, that must have been one hell of an experience :shocked:
Consider yourself one extremely lucky insane guy! Too bad that can't be said for those that didn't make it.. :sad:
