The incident occurred around 5 am as the driver, Ramlal Kanaji Meena, attempted to use the restricted stretch despite the ban on heavy vehicles. Meena, who was travelling from APMC towards Pune, collided with the barricades while attempting to enter the flyover on the Pune-bound carriageway from Mahatma Phule signal in Vashi. The flyover is specifically designed for light vehicles, and barricades have been installed to prevent heavy vehicles from entering.\n\nVashi traffic police responded swiftly to the accident, regulating traffic to prevent further congestion.

Meena sustained minor injuries to his hand and was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.",
