A team from Hyderabad narrowly avoided disaster on Saturday when their SUV veered off course and plunged into a swollen canal near Kuruppanthara, Kerala. Following directions from a route finder app, the vehicle took a wrong turn near the Kadavu bridge around 3 a.m. while en route from Munnar to Alappuzha. Despite sustaining severe damage, all passengers emerged unscathed, managing to escape through the car’s windows before it sank. Prompt intervention from locals, police, and the Fire and Rescue Services averted a potential tragedy. Residents are now advocating for improved warning signage at the accident-prone site.
