Mangaluru, Nov 15, 2025: A tragic accident near the Panambur signal claimed three lives after a speeding tanker rammed into vehicles waiting at the signal.


According to reports, vehicles were halted at the Panambur signal when a fast-moving tanker hit an auto-rickshaw and a car from behind, triggering a chain collision. A car and an auto-rickshaw were stationary behind a tanker at the signal when another tanker coming from behind crashed into the rickshaw.
