In an unfortunate road accident, a car rammed into another car and mounted on top of it, triggering a major traffic disruption at Palasuni Square in Bhubaneswar on Monday. 

The accident reportedly led to a road blockade that lasted for nearly half an hour, causing inconvenience to the commuters.

As per reports, a speeding car coming from Cuttack rammed into another moving car at the busy Palasuni square area.

Following the accident, traffic movement on the stretch reportedly came to a complete standstill for around 30 minutes, leading to long queues of vehicles on both sides of the road. The situation was brought under control after a crane was pressed into service to remove both damaged vehicles from the road.

Normal vehicular movement was restored only after the two cars were cleared from the accident site. Preliminary assessment suggests that overspeeding may have been the primary cause of the accident. Authorities are further investigating the incident.
