The thrill of high speed claimed the lives of two young men from Gujarat’s Ahmedabad and left three others battling for their lives. The five youths, all between the ages of 22 and 27, were en route to Mumbai from Ahmedabad when their Maruti Suzuki Brezza met with an accident on a highway in Anand district due to overspeeding.

The tragic accident was caught on camera as the young men were live-streaming their journey on Instagram. In the video, which is now going viral on social media, all five youths can be seen partying in the car– shaking to loud music and showing the followers how they were cruising the vehicle at a speed between 140-160 km/hr.

As the video proceeds, the camera focuses on the car’s speedometer, with one of the men saying, “Look how the car is going”. The joyride took a fatal turn when the SUV’s driver started zooming past trucks one by one, overtaking vehicles to his right and left within seconds.

Suddenly, the squealing of brakes can be heard as the driver swerves to avoid an obstacle. The video ends with a loud thud and then darkness.

According to a report by NDTV, the incident occurred between 3.30 and 4.30 am on May 2 on National Highway 48.

The two deceased were identified as Aman Mehboobbhai Sheikh and Chiragkumar K Patel – both Ahmedabad residents.

The other three occupants of the car, also from the same city, suffered serious injuries and are undergoing treatment, the report said.

Police have, meanwhile, filed a case against the car’s driver, Mustafa alias Shahbad Khan Pathan for reckless driving.
