Bhopal, Jan. 13 -- Three people in a pick-up van were crushed to death after a tiles-laden truck overturned and hit the van late night Monday in the Ratlam district of Madhya Pradesh. According to the police, the accident occurred on the Ratlam-Jhabua road around 10.45 pm.
The truck was proceeding towards Ratlam from Jhabua. When it was climbing the Koyla valley slope, a possible technical fault occurred and the trucks's gear probably slipped. That resulted in the truck driver losing control of the heavy vehicle, and the truck came back reversing freely at a high speed due to the slope.
