A car accident took place early Thursday morning on the Sion-Panvel Highway near Chembur.

According to eyewitnesses, there were no passengers in the car, and the driver sustained only minor injuries.

Recently, a police official said that two first-year college students died when their car crashed into a divider on the Western Express Highway (WEH) at a high speed in Mumbai's Vile-Parle area.

According to the Vile-Parle police station official, the deceased, Sartak Kaushik, a science student at a local college, and BBA student Jalaj Dhir (both 18), were seated in the rear during an outing with their friends.

Their BBA pupils Jedan Jimmy and Sahil Menda (both 18), survived the crash.

The group was returning to Goregaon from Bandra with takeaway food when the accident occurred.

Menda, a first-year BBA student, was at the wheel and was driving at a high speed when he lost control of the car while trying to reach a service road in Vile Parle (East) and crashed into the divider.

The speed of the car was reportedly 120-150 kmph.

Police were awaiting blood test results to determine if he was drunk at the time of the accident.
