I guess they should put blinking hazard lights on the tip of the dividers which work on solar power saved and stored for the night. Another sad and most disgusting fact is that people steal the reflective boards and road markers placed near culverts and other dangerous areas on the roads that the KSTP(Kerala StateTransport Project) has built across Kerala. Also these roads are well built where cars go real fast doing averages of 90kmph or more. There are also commercial establishments that go and erect Flex hoardings at junctions blocking the view of vehicles approaching and passing thru the junctions or intersections. These hoardings are illegal and the PWD does not remove them as they dont have the man power or funds to make that happen.
OMG its real terrible. may the occupants soul RIP. my alto also has the same type of seat covers as in the indica.

Freak Accident
Chennai: A deadly combination of rash driving and official callousness caused one of the freakiest accidents in the city on Thursday, when a speeding SUV fell off an unfinished rail overbridge in suburban Pallavaram. There were apparently no signboards or barricades at the entrance of the flyover.
The car, which according to eyewitnesses was moving very fast, fell from a height of about 50 feet and landed on the railway track around 11.10am. The driver, who was the lone occupant of the car, was rescued from its mangled remains and admitted to a private hospital in Velachery with head injuries and fractures of the legs.
Passengers waiting at the Pallavaram station witnessed a scene right out of an action movie when the car literally flew off the edge of the flyover and crashed on the railway line. The car driver was later identified as Divakar (30), a resident of Vyasarpadi.
Railway police sources said Divakar was on his way to a private engineering college to pick up an application form for his sister. As GST Road was clogged with traffic, he took
the flyover without realising that the structure, meant to connect GST Road with Old Pallavaram, was incomplete.
Onlookers said some people standing at the foot of the bridge had shouted at the driver not to proceed, but Divakar did not hear them as the SUV’s windows were rolled up. Witnesses said he could have tried to apply the b r a ke s
when he realised that there
was no road ahead, but it was too late. Fortunately, the vehicle did not get entangled in the high tension powerline over the railway track. Luckily, there was no train passing by.
An official of the state highways department, which is constructing the flyover, admitted on condition of anonymity that not erecting barricades and signboards at the project site was the department’s fault.
A railway police official said the railway track was not damaged. “We used a crane to remove the vehicle from the spot. EMU operations between Tambaram and Chennai Beach were disrupted for more than an hour. A case has been booked against the driver for rash and negligent driving,” he said.

Never ever i'll take a unknown route in your city!
It looks like a scorpio. I guess the workmen should have erected a sign or barricade to prevent vehicles from entering that over bridge. Guess it might have stopped the accident from happening. I also hope that the injured or his relatives move the court and sue the Highway department for this gross negligence which could have resulted in a much more worse situation.

This is strange. No signboard at half built flyover.
This also confirms, no speeding at unknown route.

It must have been like a movie sequence for the people who watched the scorpio.
The fault is on both side , major on construction side for not erecting the caution notice
Long back i saw a scorpio being lifted from a abandoned bridge from the parallel working bridge. I was wondering why the hell he took that route , only to realise after some months
It was a shooting and the film was 'vetaikaran' , But it seemed like a real accident
