New footage has emerged of the moment a speeding car skidded off a flyover in southern India and into a crowd of people below.

A woman who was waiting for a tuk-tuk on the road below was killed in the accident and six others were injured.

The accident took place on November 23 in Hyderabad when the driver of the speeding red Volkswagen lost control and flew off the newly-opened Biodiversity flyover.

CCTV footage showed many bystanders running to safety as the car came crashing down.

A tree was uprooted and two cars parked by the road near a showroom were also damaged in the crash.

There were three people in the car and the driver was critically injured according to reports.

The car's airbags opened on impact, helping save the life of the driver.

The car was being driven at a speed of 104kmph, above the limit of 40 kmph, police said in a press release.

The 990-metre long flyover was opened on November 4.
