A speeding Tata Spacio reportedly headed towards Deorali downhill crashed at the Development Area intersection here at 8 p.m. this evening. According to eyewitnesses, the driver of this mainline taxi lost control, crashing first into the iron railings of the foothpath on the highway, breaking through the cement parapets and falling onto the lower road opposite Manan Kendra. Police personnel on patrolling duty with the help of some residents, first rescued the driver who was the only occupant in the vehicle and rushed him to STNM Hospital. Traffic resumed after an hour when the broken iron railings were removed from the lower road. The accident could have taken bigger proportions if it had occurred a few hours earlier when the Development Area road and the footpath along NH 31A see many pedestrians and the road has substantial traffic.
