According to initial reports from Pune traffic police, the accident happened when a tempo, traveling at high speed, lost control and rammed into a stationary truck parked along the Warje bypass. The impact was so severe that the front of the tempo was completely mangled, trapping the driver inside. Emergency responders rushed to the scene, but the driver was declared dead on arrival at a nearby hospital.

Eyewitnesses reported that the tempo appeared to be overtaking another vehicle when it collided with the truck. The exact cause of the accident is still under investigation, with authorities examining whether factors such as driver fatigue, speeding, or poor visibility played a role.

Police have registered a case of accidental death and are conducting a thorough investigation. The truck driver has been questioned, and CCTV footage from the bypass is being reviewed to reconstruct the sequence of events. Officials have also sent the tempo for a mechanical inspection to rule out any technical malfunction.

This incident follows a series of recent accidents involving tempos and trucks on highways and bypasses around Pune, highlighting the urgent need for stricter enforcement of traffic rules and better monitoring of heavy vehicles parked on the roadside.

Authorities have urged drivers to exercise caution, especially on bypasses and highways where heavy vehicles are often parked. The Pune traffic police are planning increased patrolling and awareness campaigns to educate both commercial and private drivers about the dangers of speeding and reckless overtaking.
