A speeding car allegedly driven under the influence of alcohol created panic in Navi Mumbai after it rammed into multiple vehicles near Karave village, leaving several cars and two-wheelers damaged. Fortunately, no casualties were reported in the incident, but the crash sparked shock among locals and commuters in the area.
According to reports, the vehicle involved was an Innova that was moving at high speed when it hit both parked and moving vehicles along the road. Eyewitnesses said the driver appeared to have lost control of the car, allegedly due to intoxication.

Police have not yet confirmed the full circumstances under which the card was present, but the discovery has led to deeper scrutiny.
“As soon as the information about the incident was received, the police reached the spot and further investigation is underway,” the report noted.
While the absence of injuries has brought some relief, the incident has once again raised concerns about drunk driving and the dangers posed by speeding vehicles on busy urban roads. Locals have demanded strict action to ensure accountability and prevent such reckless incidents from recurring .
