Horrific Accident on Vansda-Dharampur State Highway: Youth Crushed to Death After Eeco Car Rams into Trailer

Tragedy Near Pipalched Village: 30-Year-Old from Dharampur Succumbs During Treatment

A heart-wrenching accident occurred yesterday on the main road connecting Vansda in Navsari and Dharampur in Valsad. Near the Upla Faliya Bari of Pipalched village, a speeding Eeco car rammed into a tractor-trailer from behind. The collision was so violent that a young man sitting next to the tractor driver was thrown onto the road. In a tragic turn of events, the heavy wheels of the tractor and the trailer ran over him before the driver could react.

Despite being rushed to hospitals in Vansda and subsequently Dharampur, the youth could not be saved. The incident drew large crowds to the highway, and the Vansda police have registered a case to initiate a thorough investigation.

Incident Details: Tragedy Strikes While Returning from Work

According to reports, the tractor driver, Kamlesh Dhirubhai Bhusara (resident of Umerkui, Vansda), was returning after completing bridge construction work at Keliya village. He was transporting equipment to Ranifaliya village. Sitting beside him on the tractor was Chhotubhai Tuljibhai Vaijal (30), a resident of Dhamani Charipada Faliya, Dharampur.

As they passed through Pipalched village, an Eeco car (GJ-05-CP-1798) driven by Anilbhai Babubhai Patel (resident of Bhinar, Vansda) hit the rear of the trailer with immense force due to negligent driving.

A Fatal Fall: Crushed Under the Wheels

The impact of the car caused the tractor to jolt violently. Chhotubhai lost his balance and fell directly in front of the moving vehicle. Before the tractor driver could apply the brakes, the large front wheel and the subsequent trailer wheels passed over Chhotubhai’s abdomen and lower body.

• Emergency Response: Bystanders immediately called the 108 ambulance.
• Medical Aid: He was first taken to the Vansda Cottage Hospital and later shifted to a hospital in Dharampur due to his critical condition.
