What actually happened?

The car is speeding along the street when it runs into a motorcycle. People around are rushing to rescue their cars, pushing them off the roadside. Finally, the car crashes into a divider and stops its wild ride dead in its tracks.

Who Was Behind the Wheel?

Jitendra Jahangir was the driver of the MG Hector. He however, lived in the Divya Darshan apartment situated in the Mansarovar area. This car Jitendra had bought in 2021. He said that at about 1:05 AM, there was smoke coming out from the air conditioning system while he was driving on the elevated road. Fearing, he called his brother and took his advice.

Efforts to Control the Fire

Heeding the advice of his brother, Jitendra stopped and popped open the bonnet to his horror and found the engine to be burning. People now gathered around to see what was happening as he got out of the car, handbrake on and opened all four windows. However, by then, the fire had spread rapidly.

There were people close to the place trying to quench the flames, but they were too fast. Someone had still succeeded in putting in a call to the fire department, but that was too late. Flames broke through car wiring and destroyed its automatic handbrake. Additionally, one of the tires blower up a tire on that car.

Chaos on Highway

The car rolled down the slope of the elevated road and chaos erupted. People ran away from the burning vehicle to avoid being hit. The situation further became messy as there was a motorcycle that was in the car’s trajectory and was hit by it as it continued its very dangerous journey.

Police Involvement

According to the traffic police officer Deepak, they came to know about the occurrence as the car got stuck in a jam which resulted from the burning of the car. They rushed towards the spot as the car was going downhill. The traffic policeman cleared the traffic so that no person got hurt.

Critical Safety Points

This made me learn to understand the importance of knowing what one should do in case of an auto vehicle fire. With automatic cars, the wiring is usually set to burn. This may have happened, causing a handbrake failure. One should cut off the vehicle and put it in gear so that it will not roll away.

Conclusion

A burning car incident in Jaipur reminds us that everything can go wrong in a jiffy; it is where timely actions by Jitendra and his response from the community stopped it from becoming a more serious disaster. It is important to remain calm and apply wisdom accordingly while handling such situations.
