National Highways Authority Of India [NHAI] — accident due on the unwarranted speed breakers

Address:

530048

This is about a daylight, unwarranted and certainly an avoidable accident on our national highway.

While travelling from vizag to rajahmundry on 7th march 2018 in our ford figo car, we ended up colliding with another car in front o[censored]s, which stalled suddenly after noticing an un-sanctioned speedbreakers at gandepalli village on nh-16, andhrapradesh.

There were no traffic signs or markers indicating the presense of any speed breakers in that section of the highway.

As a result of this collision, entire front portion of our car got totally damaged, rendering our car useless. We both miracally escaped with minor injuries because of ford's special design of crumple zone in engine bay and bonnet of our car figo. Also, wearing seat belt was another contributing factor to our safety.

We left the car in ford workshop for repairs and also applied for our insurance which is being attended to.

Now we request you to arrange for reimbursement of the additional charges that are not covered through insurance - as it pretty obvious that the accident was caused due to negligence from the national highway department by allowing those speed breakers to exist in that particular section and also not having right set of markers or traffic sign boards indicating the presense of the same.
