Teen, who only had a learner’s license, took dad’s Toyota Fortuner out for a spin in SoBo with his friends.A19-year-old youth was arrested by the Bandra police after he rammed his car into a toll booth at the end of the Bandra-Worli sea link during the wee hours of Thursday. Police sources said that the arrested accused, identified as Anmol Pradeep Gupta, only had a learner’s license and not a permanent driving license.“The incident took place at around 12.45 am when the accused and seven of his friends were on their way back to their home in Vile Parle. They had gone for a joyride towards Southern Mumbai,” a police source from Bandra police station said.The police officer added that the youth allegedly lost control of the car and wasn’t able to apply the brakes due to which he rammed his father’s Toyata Fortuner into the toll plaza near Bandra reclamation, injuring four people. Police sources told Mirror that Anmol’s father is a businessman from Delhi and the entire family lives in Vile Parle in a rented apartment.“Among those who were injured was a toll supervisor, a cashier and two toll collectors. All the four were taken to K B Bhabha hospital in Bandra where two of them were provided with first aid and the other two were admitted. They are currently stable. The friends of the accused, who were in the car, escaped without any serious injuries,” the police source from Bandra police station added.The toll functions in the lane where the incident took place were stalled for a few hours causing inconvenience to several drivers. A temporary toll had to be set up.“We arrested the youth who was later released on bail,” said Pandit Thakre, senior police inspector of Bandra police station.A case was registered against Gupta under sections 279 (rash driving or riding on a public way), 337 (causing hurt by act endangering life or personal safety of others) and 427 (mischief causing damage to the amount of fifty rupees) of the Indian Penal Code. Police sources said that it was highly unlikely that the accused was driving under the influence of alcohol. However, his blood samples had been collected and sent for confirmation.Meanwhile, the Bandra traffic division have written to the Andheri RTO to take action against Gupta’s learner’s license. “A case has been registered against the accused at the Bandra police station and we have already issued a letter to the deputy regional transport office in Andheri asking them to take stern action against the errant driver,” said Vijayalakhsmi Hiremath, senior police inspector of Bandra traffic division.
