As mountain roads are narrow, if one vehicles faces an issue anywhere on the road, it creates a huge traffic jam. The rescue team had come and tried pulling out the car with a tow rope but the car was buried inside the rocks and was sliding too. The rescue team then started placing rocks around the car to give it some grip when it comes out and even pulled it with a Mahindra Bolero pickup to finally correct the position.

Locals had also come in to help the Innova driver along with the rescue team and after 14 hours of hard work the Innova was finally out. The Innova is not a 4 wheel drive vehicle and is not made for such extreme places. As the power only goes to two wheels, the chances of a car getting stuck in such conditions are very high.

If you are travelling in a two wheel drive car to any such location, it is always recommended to go in a group so that even if something goes wrong, others from the group can help. Another thing to be kept in mind while travelling to such places is to keep the right equipment. The car must have a tow rope. While pulling out a vehicle it is advisable to place a blanket over the rope to avoid any accident if in case the rope breaks.
