The incident occurred when an Innova, parked on the side of the road, pulled out into traffic. A Fortuner approaching from behind collided with the front of the Innova. The impact caused the Fortuner to flip onto its side, while the Innova swerved and hit another parked vehicle. The extent of injuries and property damage is unclear.
This incident highlights the importance of safe merging practices. Drivers should always signal, check their surroundings, and only merge when it is safe to do so. In addition, reducing speed in congested areas can help prevent unexpected accidents.
Even when driving straight, a sudden jolt can destabilize a vehicle, leading to a rollover regardless of any supplemental safety features.
