🚨 🚨 An accident is traumatic enough. Being left stranded by the police for over TWO HOURS, with a FIVE-YEAR-OLD CHILD and a SENIOR CITIZEN (My Mother), is simply unacceptable.🚨 🚨 1️⃣ On 31 October 2026, at approximately 11:01 PM, our family met with a serious road accident near GAIL Service Station, Bagaluru Road, while travelling from KIAL towards Whitefield. A speeding Mahindra Thar (KA 01 NC 6868) rammed into our Tata Punch (KA 53 MM 7661). The impact deployed the airbags, left our car completely immobilised and caused minor injuries to the occupants - @AditiDoon @myr179 2️⃣ The actual accident footage is attached to this post. Senior Karnataka Police officials are requested to watch the video and examine the circumstances and severity of the collision. 3️⃣ Despite repeatedly contacting Chikkajala Traffic Police, our family was left stranded at the accident spot for over TWO HOURS. No assistance vehicle was made available. We eventually had to arrange our own transportation to the police station, leaving our severely damaged and unsecured vehicle abandoned on the roadside. ⁉️ What followed raises even more serious questions.⁉️ 4️⃣ Despite repeated requests, the accident scene was not inspected and documented while our vehicle was still at the location. We were given varying explanations, including staff unavailability, the need to register an FIR first and that a spot inspection could only be conducted during daytime. 5️⃣ This raises serious concerns about compliance with Rule 150A read with Clause 1 of Annexure XIII of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989, which prescribe accident investigation procedures, including scene inspection, photography, video recording and preparation of a site plan. 6️⃣ We then had to independently arrange towing, wait for hours and manage the vehicle handover at approximately 4:30 AM. 7️⃣ An FIR (181/2026) has since been registered, naming the Thar driver. Both vehicles are reportedly being retained for RTO inspection. 8️⃣ We demand answers and immediate intervention from senior Karnataka Police officials: 1. Why was a family left stranded for over two hours after a serious road accident? 2. Why was the accident scene not inspected and documented despite repeated requests while the damaged vehicle was still there? 3. Who is accountable for the apparent lapses in the initial police response and investigation? 4. Why should accident victims have to independently arrange transportation, towing and manage basic formalities? 5. When will the RTO inspection be completed and our Tata Punch released? There must be no unnecessary retention of the vehicle. 9️⃣ We have preserved dashcam footage, photographs, videos of the accident scene, recordings of our interactions with police personnel and the video of the vehicle handover. The accident footage is attached to this post for immediate reference. 🔟 We are NOT asking for special treatment. We are asking for the police to follow prescribed procedures, preserve evidence, act responsibly and treat accident victims with basic consideration. AN ACCIDENT VICTIM SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FIGHT THE SYSTEM AFTER SURVIVING A ROAD ACCIDENT. Senior Karnataka Police officials, we seek your immediate intervention, accountability and a time-bound resolution. This matter deserves attention at the highest level. @chikkajalatrfps @acpnortheasttr @DCPTrNorthBCP @DCPNEBCP @Jointcptraffic @blrcitytraffic @BlrCityPolice @CPBlr @DgpKarnataka @bngdistpol #KarnatakaPolice #BengaluruPolice #RoadSafety #PoliceAccountability
