As an automotive blog, we highly emphasise on road safety and when we catch up with accidents like this happen in front of our own eyes, we would definitely talk about them. The crash here between a Honda Amaze and Toyota Fortuner is testament to the evolved safety standards of today but it is always in the fact that the responsibility of a driver to keep himself and the fellow occupants safe.
Having at least minimum levels of safety equipment is necessary and makes the big difference between life and death. Thankfully, car manufacturers are beginning to come up with driver airbag as standardised equipment across all variants from lower end of the budget scale. Before choosing a car to buy, we Indians would typically look for the mileage capability.
Coming back to the crash, the heavily crushed Fortuner was traveling at around 100 kmph and missed the intersection where Amaze had hit the SUV’s rear left tyre. Due to the impact, the Fortuner’s right side collided with the street light pole.
Courtesy of the curtain airbags and solid built quality on both the cars, no fatalities were recorded and in fact the drivers of both the cars and the occupants were not injured to even a slightest bit except for some possible minor concussions.
