The BMW involved in the fatal crash on the Mumbai Coastal Road was reportedly traveling at around 120 kmph, exceeding the 80 kmph speed limit on the main carriageway, according to police reports. The car was driven by college students Shanay Gajjar, 21, who was behind the wheel, Aditya Jakasnia, 19, and Dhairya Sheth, 17, who were rear-seat passengers.
Front-seat passenger Aditya Oswal, 20, survived the crash with serious injuries. The exact speed causing the accident is still under investigation, but investigators suspect the vehicle was traveling at a high speed based on its trajectory after hitting a barrier and the momentum with which it went off the elevated section. Police are examining various factors, including speeding, alcohol consumption, or mechanical failure, to determine the cause of the crash.
CCTV footage and videos circulating on social media show the car speeding along the flyover before colliding with a railing and plunging onto the road below. An accidental death case has been registered following the tragic incident, with further details awaited before filing a First Information Report (FIR).
