The identities of the deceased and any information about the crash may be revealed by authorities in the course of the investigation.
Road accidents are still a serious problem for India and car-motorcycle accidents are a big problem for road safety as many people are injured or killed in road accidents. Drivers should be driving to the speed limit, keep a safe distance, and stay out of the way of other vehicles, it is recommended.
The Keshod accident has once again highlighted the importance of cautious driving and responsible road behaviour.
The CCTV footage may help investigators to reconstruct the sequence of events but two lives have been lost and their family and community are grieving.
Police are investigating what made the collision so tragic; the investigation will continue. We will take action on the evidence we have gathered during the investigation.
