The victim's daughter shared visuals of the crashed WagonR

Overview

  • Police registered an FIR against driver Sudhir under sections for causing death by negligence and rash driving after the early-morning June 21 collision.
  • The Arora family received an Apple crash alert around 4 am and discovered the Uber WagonR wedged beneath a stationary tempo near the flyway toll plaza.
  • Sudhir survived the impact and remains hospitalized, but doctors have deemed him unfit to give a statement as investigations proceed.
  • The victim’s family accuses Uber of failing to notify them of the accident and of blocking the victim’s account before offering any information.
  • A 45-minute delay in emergency response and lack of on-scene medical aid highlight persistent road safety and accountability concerns with app-based cab services.
