Ahmedabad, March 17 In a tragic incident, 10 people were killed after an overloaded private vehicle rammed into a truck on the Vadodara-Ahmedabad Expressway on Wednesday.

As per reports, an overspeeding Innova car, which was used as a shuttle vehicle to ferry passengers on the expressway, rammed into the truck. While eight people died on the spot, two others died during treatment.

“The accident raises questions on road safety in Gujarat,” alleged Shaktisinh Gohil, President of the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee.

“Despite regulations, private vehicles are carrying passengers far exceeding their intended capacity. The government should ensure stricter compliance with transport laws," he added.
