According to sources, the incident occurred during late-night hours when multiple buses entering the Colaba depot are reportedly driven at high speed. This pattern, sources claimed, has frequently led to near-miss situations and recurring minor collisions in the area, raising concerns over operational safety during nighttime depot entry procedures.
Immediately after the crash, the taxi was left severely damaged and rendered immobile, requiring individuals present at the scene to physically push the vehicle aside to clear the entry route. Eyewitness accounts further indicated that BEST employees present at the location were seen engaging in heated arguments with the taxi driver, with allegations of intimidation directed toward the cab operator following the collision.
The incident has once again drawn attention to safety discipline during bus movement within depot premises, particularly during late-night operations when traffic coordination is critical.
The matter underscores persistent concerns regarding driving conduct within transport depot zones and the need for stricter adherence to safety protocols to prevent repeated incidents of this nature.
