Palghar: After industrialist and former Tata Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry died in a road accident in Palghar, police asked the car manufacturer company why the airbags in the ill-fated SUV did not open at the time of the accident.
Palghar Police have asked several questions to the car manufacturer company, “Why do not the airbags open? Was there any mechanical fault in the vehicle? What was the brake fluid of the car? What was the tire pressure?”
Police said that these vehicles come out of the plant only after proper testing. “In such a situation, what is the report of the collision impact of the manufacturer’s investigation? Was the steering locked after the collision?” Police asked the car manufacturer. The car manufacturer team will submit the answers to all these questions in its report.
According to sources, the car manufacturer company has informed the Palghar Police that the data recorder chip of the vehicle will be sent to Germany for decoding and after decoding from Germany, detailed information about the SUV will be made available to the police. It may take several days in this process. In this data recorder, detailed information about the vehicle will be available.

The estimates about the speed of the vehicle are made on the basis of different video footage or time calculations. The average speed of the vehicle will be known but it is impossible to estimate the speed of the vehicle at different places at different times.
