Car Loses Control and Plunges Into Gorge in Uttarakhand, Killing OnePreviousNext

A car accident occurred near Chillad on Uttarakhand's Chakrata-Tyuni road when a Ford vehicle lost control at a sharp turn, crashed into a roadside pole, and plunged into a nearly 100-foot gorge. Dashcam footage shows the car involved in a risky overtake and possible chase with another vehicle before the crash. The accident killed one person and injured two others. Rescue teams used ropes to retrieve the injured, and police are investigating the incident, including the dashcam video.
