A terrifying incident unfolded on the Hyderabad-Bijapur National Highway near Vikarabad in Telangana on December 21, 2025, when an overloaded truck overturned on the busy route, narrowly missing a young child standing by the roadside. CCTV footage shared on social platforms shows the heavy vehicle speeding before flipping over suddenly, causing passing motorists to swerve and bystanders to dive for cover.

Miraculously, no fatalities were reported, and the child escaped without injury — a narrow escape that residents and commuters described as a “close brush with disaster.” The truck’s overturning disrupted traffic for nearly two hours, as emergency services worked to clear the wreckage and reopen the highway.
This stretch of the Hyderabad-Bijapur corridor, especially around Manneguda and Vikarabad, has become notorious for frequent accidents involving heavy and overloaded vehicles. Locals routinely warn about the dangers posed by overspeeding trucks and inadequate enforcement of load restrictions, a combination that has contributed to multiple overturns and collisions in recent weeks and months
