The terrible accident took place when the supercar lost control and collided with a car coming from the opposite lane
In a rather terrible turn of events, a speeding Ferrari hit a Tata Altroz in Hyderabad, causing injury to 3 persons. India is, unfortunately, home to some of the most dangerous roads in the world. There are thousands of accidents each year. Mostly, the drivers don’t follow the traffic regulations, which leads to such tragic mishaps. In the past, I have reported numerous instances of people losing control of their supercars and ending up in horrendous circumstances. For now, let us delve into the details of this latest case.
Ferrari and Tata Altroz Accident
This crash took place in Hyderabad’s upscale Jubilee Hills area on Sunday, leaving three people injured and several vehicles damaged. The crash took place on Road No. 45, close to the residence of Tollywood actor Nandamuri Balakrishna, a stretch that usually sees steady urban traffic. According to initial reports, the Ferrari, estimated to be worth around Rs 4 crore, went out of control and first struck an electric pole on the road divider. It then collided with a car coming from the opposite direction. The impact triggered a chain reaction, with a few vehicles behind also getting damaged.
The accident caused significant traffic congestion in the area for some time. Police teams reached the spot soon after being alerted and shifted the injured individuals to a nearby private hospital. Thankfully, their condition has been reported as stable. A case has been registered and an investigation is currently underway to determine the exact sequence of events. The Ferrari is registered in the name of E. Venkata Raja Reddy. Authorities confirmed that the person driving the car at the time of the incident tested negative for alcohol and was reportedly on the way to attend a wedding.
Transport department officials who carried out a preliminary inspection indicated that a possible brake and engine malfunction may have contributed to the loss of control. While supercars are designed for high performance, this incident highlights the importance of mechanical health, responsible driving, and road conditions, especially within city limits. In dense urban environments like Hyderabad, even a momentary technical failure can lead to multi-vehicle accidents and pose risks to other road users.

Having tracked the rise of India’s supercar culture closely, I see this incident as another reminder that high-performance machines demand equally high standards of maintenance and driving discipline. Our urban roads, crowded, unpredictable, and often unforgiving, are hardly the ideal playground for 600+ hp cars. What also stands out is how a single mechanical failure or loss of control can endanger multiple road users in dense city traffic. As the luxury and supercar segment expands, responsible ownership will be just as important as aspirational buying.
