Grape truck accident on Dhimbam Ghat Road leaves driver injured and grapes scattered, prompting police response.
A grape-laden truck fell into a roadside gorge while negotiating a bend on the Dhimbam Ghat Road on Tuesday.
The truck, which was travelling from Mysuru to Coimbatore on the Mysuru–Dindigul National Highway, lost control while navigating the third hairpin bend on the ghat road. As a result, it crashed into a roadside barrier and overturned in the forest area. While the driver sustained minor injuries, the grapes loaded in the truck were scattered across the road. The Sathyamangalam police were alerted and promptly cleared the accident site. An inquiry is underway.
