Mathiyazhagan, a resident of Nathampatti, was riding through the area, unaware of the ongoing construction work. Due to the lack of reflective tape and proper safety signage, the site was nearly invisible in the glare of his bike’s headlights. He inadvertently rode over a mound of soil and fell into the pit along with his vehicle.
Rushed To Hospital
Fellow commuters quickly came to his rescue and pulled him out of the underpass. He was later taken to the District Government Hospital for treatment.
