In an unfortunate incident that occurred in Vikarabad on Monday, an overloaded auto rickshaw lost control and overturned, injuring several kids who were riding in it. The incident occurred in the district’s Kodangal Mandal.
The auto rickshaw was transporting 20 school pupils, indicating a severe case of overloading, according to sources. The driver lost control of the auto due to the enormous weight and lack of stability, resulting in the accident.
The injured students were sent to local medical facilities for treatment right away. Authorities will most likely conduct an investigation into the occurrence to identify the cause of the tragedy and whether the auto rickshaw was operating within the allowed capacity limitations imposed for such vehicles.

Overloading of auto rickshaws and other public transportation vehicles is a prevalent safety concern in many regions, and such instances emphasize the significance of following transportation regulations and safeguarding the safety of passengers, particularly schoolchildren. Local governments and transportation authorities will almost certainly take the appropriate steps to resolve and prevent such events in the future.
