Vadodara, Feb 7 || A high-speed crash involving a luxury car caused extensive damage to public property in Vadodara's Raopura area, police said on Saturday.
The incident occurred when the vehicle, travelling from Jubilee Baug towards Raopura, reportedly mounted the central divider and struck a traffic signal pole on Friday night.
Preliminary information suggests the driver lost control of the car. The impact of the collision was severe, leaving the front portion of the vehicle badly damaged and one of its tyres detached. The airbags were deployed during the crash. Despite the intensity of the impact, no injuries were reported.
Eyewitnesses said traffic at the intersection was briefly disrupted as locals gathered at the spot and attempted to assist.
Shailesh Mistry, a priest at a nearby temple, said the accident appeared to be the result of reckless driving and suggested that the vehicle may have been involved in a race.
"The consequences could have been far more serious had the incident occurred during peak traffic hours," he said.
