Truck hits car and drags it for long distance

A shocking road accident took place near Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh when a speeding container truck rammed into a car and dragged it for nearly one-and-a-half kilometres. The incident happened on Saturday evening between 6.30 pm and 7 pm on the Gwalior-Dabra highway, close to a culvert near Bajhera village, just outside Tekanpur limits.

Police said three people were travelling in the car, including an officer from the Special Armed Forces (SAF) who was returning from Orchha. All three passengers survived and escaped without serious injuries, which officials described as remarkable considering the distance the car was dragged.

Collision near Bilaua and desperate chase

According to police and eyewitnesses, the truck hit the side of a Tata Nexon near Bilaua. After the collision, the car became stuck in the front portion of the truck. Instead of stopping, the driver allegedly continued to drive towards Defence Park, pushing and dragging the car along the road.

People nearby heard the passengers shouting for help. Eyewitnesses said the trapped occupants banged on the truck’s body while the vehicle moved at speed. The friction with the road badly damaged the car’s exterior, but its strong build helped prevent a fatal collapse.
