Accidents due to negligence at construction sites have led to numerous fatalities. Recently, a similar incident occurred in Patna, Bihar, where three workers were struck by a loco pick-up vehicle in a metro tunnel. The accident happened after the vehicle’s brake failed. Two workers died, and two others were injured. At the time, 25 workers were on-site, and two were rescued. It was reported that the loco pick-up, which was overloaded, entered the tunnel, where it ran over the workers after the brake failure.
