A car collision near Pillar No. 165 on Hyderabad’s PVNR Expressway caused a major traffic jam on the Mehdipatnam–Aramghar route after one of the vehicles struck the road divider and was severely damaged, according to Deccan Chronicle – South.
The crash occurred when a car rammed into another vehicle from behind near the pillar along the expressway. Following the impact, the car lost control and hit the divider. The driver sustained minor injuries in the incident.
Traffic movement was affected as the damaged vehicle had to be removed from the PVNR Expressway. The disruption was particularly significant because the crash took place on the Mehdipatnam–Aramghar route, where the expressway functions as a key road link for local traffic.
Rajendranagar traffic police reached the spot after receiving information about the accident. Police personnel took steps to clear the traffic and manage the disruption caused by the stranded vehicle and the recovery operation.
The incident also brought the operational risks of crashes on elevated and high-volume urban road corridors into focus. When a damaged vehicle remains on such a route, the response involves not only attending to injured people and recording the incident but also restoring the carriageway for traffic. In this case, the removal of the vehicle was directly linked to the traffic jam reported after the collision.
Police registered a case in connection with the accident and began an investigation. The supplied report does not provide details about the identities of the drivers, the exact cause of the rear-end collision, the speed of the vehicles, or whether any further injuries were reported.
The immediate response involved traffic police reaching the location, managing road movement and working to clear the damaged vehicle from the expressway. Further details are expected to emerge as the investigation by Rajendranagar traffic police proceeds.
