The car’s speedometer was frozen at 150 km per hour. They said that the tipper driver had fled the scene but would be apprehended soon as his vehicle’s number was being traced.The car’s registration number indicates that its owner is from the Lamma Pind area. The police are still verifying the address.A PAN card was also recovered from the car. The bodies of the deceased have been placed in the mortuary.
