Porsche Crashes Into Divider While Racing BMW On Mumbai Expressway, Driver Injured

The Porsche driver sustained serious injuries after the speeding car rammed into the divider.

A speeding Porsche car collided with a divider on Mumbai's Western Express Highway late Wednesday night. The driver was seriously injured in the crash.

According to an eyewitness, the Porsche and the BMW were racing, after which the Porsche went out of control and hit the divider, news agency ANI reported.

The visuals show a blue-coloured Porsche car that was completely damaged after the alleged collision.

Mumbai Police is yet to issue an official statement on the accident. Further details are awaited.

In May 2024, a deadly Porsche crash in Pune’s Kalyani Nagar ignited outrage across India after a luxury car, allegedly driven by an intoxicated minor, struck and killed two IT professionals riding a bike.

The incident drew national condemnation, especially after the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) granted the accused swift bail with conditions viewed by many as exceptionally lenient, including writing a 300-word essay on road safety. The minor was also tasked with highlighting both the significance of responsible driving and the consequences of reckless actions as a part of this essay.

Public uproar over the perceived inadequacy of the bail terms prompted the Women and Child Development Department to set up a special panel to scrutinise the conduct of the Juvenile Justice Board members in relation to bail decisions involving minors.

Police determined that on the night of May 19, the minor, behind the wheel of a high-end Porsche, rammed into the motorcycle carrying the two IT professionals, resulting in their deaths on the spot.

The Pune police subsequently filed a 900-page chargesheet, implicating seven individuals in the case, including the juvenile’s parents, for their roles connected to the tragic accident.
