Drunk Driver Causes South-Style Accident in Ahmedabad: Creta Hits Activa, 2 Dead on Spot

In Ahmedabad, drunk drivers seem unafraid of the law or the police, causing one accident after another. On Naroda-Dehgam Road, a car driver under heavy alcohol influence caused a horrific accident, claiming the lives of two innocent young men. The car was speeding so recklessly that it jumped over stones placed on the divider, flew into the air, and crashed into an Activa scooter coming from the opposite side. Both riders died on the spot. When locals caught the driver, he was heavily intoxicated and staggering. The police have apprehended the driver and are conducting further investigations.

Two Promising Youths Die on the Spot

Last night on the Dehgam-Naroda highway, two young men riding an Activa scooter were hit by a white Creta car. The car jumped over stones on the divider and entered the wrong side of the road, colliding with the Activa. The impact flung both riders, killing them instantly. Nearby residents pulled the driver, Gopal Patel, out of the car and thrashed him before handing him over to the police.

Names of the Deceased:

• Amit Rathod, 26 years
• Vishal Rathod, 27 years

Driver Was Drunk – Ahmedabad Rural SP

Ahmedabad Rural DSP Om Prakash Jat stated that the driver was under the influence of alcohol. The driver had started his journey from Zak village in an intoxicated state. While heading toward Naroda, he attempted to overtake a rickshaw, causing the car to climb onto the divider and veer onto the opposite road. There, it collided with the Activa, killing both young riders instantly. Upon being informed, Kanbha police arrived at the scene and arrested the driver. A case of culpable homicide has been registered against the accused.

Second Drunk Driving Accident in Eight Days

Ahmedabad has witnessed a disturbing trend of drunk driving accidents within a short span. Seven days ago, on the Bopal-Ambli road, a man named Ripple Panchal caused an accident while intoxicated, damaging seven to eight vehicles. Fortunately, there were no fatalities. However, within days, the Naroda-Dehgam Road incident has claimed two innocent lives, raising serious concerns about police enforcement and public safety measures.
