Two Cars Burn After Three-Vehicle Crash on Yamuna Expressway Near Rabupura

Investigators are assessing fog-linked speed risks and a possible electrical fault behind the blaze.

Overview

  • Late Saturday night near the 20-km milestone under Rabupura police jurisdiction, three vehicles—a Tata Punch, a Tata Sumo and a Hyundai Grand i10—collided while traveling from Jewar toward Noida.
  • The Tata Punch and Tata Sumo caught fire and were gutted, while the Grand i10 driver avoided a major impact and was unhurt.
  • Two drivers were injured, taken to a nearby hospital and discharged after treatment, and no deaths were reported.
  • Police and fire crews arrived promptly, extinguished the flames in about an hour, removed the wreckage with a crane and restored traffic on the expressway.
  • Preliminary findings cite overspeeding and dense fog as likely factors, with a possible short circuit under examination for the fires, and early reports give conflicting driver names.
