Six-car pile-up leads to traffic jam on Hyderabad’s PVNR Expressway

Six-car pile-up leads to traffic jam on Hyderabad’s PVNR Expressway

A severe multi-car accident occurred on the PVNR Expressway in Hyderabad on Thursday evening, resulting in significant traffic congestion. An electric vehicle driver lost control of their car at around 10 p.m. near Pillar No. 135, causing it to strike a pole on the central divider. This collision triggered a chain reaction where an additional five vehicles crashed into each other, creating a pile-up situation on the busy expressway.

Fortunately, the only injuries reported were minor ones sustained by the occupants of the initial car. There were no fatalities reported. The Hyderabad Traffic Police released alerts about the accident near Pillar Nos. 131 and 140, and their mobile staff arrived on the scene to clear the obstructing vehicles. Commuters were urged to exercise caution and follow the guidance of traffic personnel while navigating the disrupted expressway.
