Jagruti’s rider partner, who survived the accident, in her statement to the Kasa police said that she (the victim) fell from her Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 after hitting a pothole. Before she could get up, a speeding truck crushed her to death. On Monday, the Mayor said that the PWD department was responsible for maintaining the roads outside the city limits. “The accident occurred on Dahanu road and not on roads looked after by the BMC,” he said.
