In another bizarre accident took place in the Maduravoyal-Tambaram bypass road in Tamil Nadu, a truck carrying cement mixture lost control and the vehicle turned turtle. The driver suffered grievous injuries.
On November 18, a truck overturn killed six children in Bihar's Gopalganj district. A truck laden with marbles turned upside-down killing six children on the spot. The accident happened after the truck hit a pothole. The driver managed to escape the spot after the accident.
In another incident, a truck in Turkey carrying a gigantic wind turbine blade fell on to its side while it was trying to make a turn on the highway. The video of the accident was captured by onlookers who later shared it on social media. The turbine was reportedly part of the new win project in the district and the company building involved in the project had done extensive research on how to move it to the site.
