The occupants of a fast automobile had a precarious escape when it swerved off ntr Marg and came to rest early on sunday morning against the railing encircling the Hussainsagar. The vehicle's occupants escaped from the area where it was dangling from the railing. Shaik Kareem, a techie from Malakpet, was the driver's identity as revealed by police subsequently. At the Saifabad police station, a case has been opened for further investigation.
According to the police, Kareem and his companion were travelling home at a fast rate of speed about three in the morning when he lost control of the car and slammed into the barrier. According to police, Kareem and his companion got out of the car as it was teetering on the bund and left the scene.
Until the last of the barricades were taken down on sunday evening, traffic bottlenecks, honking by irate drivers, and screaming and screeching were the rule of the day around the hyderabad street racing circuit of ntr Marg. The Formula E race had concluded the day before, but the obstacles were still in place, which infuriated drivers who wanted to use ntr Marg and Mint Compound Road.
