In the latest incident, a Maruti Swift hits the rear end of a truck at high speed. Road accidents are common in our country. Swift is among the most successful monikers in the country. It has been at the top of sales charts in India since time immemorial. However, it doesn’t boast a particularly encouraging NCAP rating.

It looks like the driver was not paying attention to the road. The brake lights come on suddenly as he realizes that he is approaching the truck. He even tried steering hard at the last moment. However, it was too late by then. The front left section of the Swift collided with the truck at a relatively high speed. Interestingly, as the car comes to a halt, the passenger from the Swift emerges. It looks like he is safe without any injuries. That is quite impressive considering the impact of the crash.
