Three people were killed on the spot and two others were badly injured in an accident that has become a major talking point because their vehicle split into two parts on the Chhindwara-Nagpur highway on June 11. Numerous images of the mishap are making rounds on the internet. According to reports, the Kia Seltos had five occupants and was speeding. It hit a bridge when the driver tried to save a motorcyclist who he spotted late. While the three rear-seat passengers died on the spot, the driver and co-driver sustained serious injuries and were rushed to a hospital.
