In a disastrous accident that took place in hilly terrains in India, a Tata Harrier got crushed by a huge rock, but miraculously all the passengers walked out safely.
The incident happened when on a rainy day, a supposed traffic congestion made some vehicles on standby. However, out of nowhere some large boulders came falling from the top of the hills and smashed onto the standby vehicles out of which one stuck a Tata Harrier in the rear side while another hit an Alto. The Alto got crushed and capsized and hit an adjacent truck. If not for the truck, the Alto might go down the valley.
