In a recent incident near Hotel Majestic Porvorim, a high-speed rental car collided with a parked four-wheeler in the early hours of Sunday, resulting in substantial damage to both vehicles. Fortunately, no fatalities were reported, but the driver of the rental car sustained minor injuries to his face.
The collision, which occurred around 4 am on Sunday morning, involved a Baleno car rented by the driver. Sources suggest that the driver was under the influence of alcohol, exceeding the speed limit. The impaired driver lost control of the vehicle, leading to the accident.
