Two other injured, Mohit, 34, a resident of Sohna, and Ishwar, 38, a resident of Palwal, were admitted to a civil hospital, police said.

According to police, the car crossed the Gamroge interchange on the expressway at high speed and plowed through the divider, leaving behind a displaced light pole to collide head-on with a Honda on the other side of the road.

Ishwar, who was riding a motorcycle, collided with the Honda City and was thrown several feet into the air to land on the hood of another car, a Kia, which was driving behind.

He has fractures in both arms and legs.

Mohit, who was in charge of City, was also injured.

The incident caused heavy traffic on the stretch, which was only cleared after the cars were removed from the motorway by cranes.

A team from Bhondsi police station is investigating the matter.

Kunal, a resident of Ghitorni, said that Dhruv, Akshat and Daksh were close friends since their school days and were first-year undergraduate students in the same college in Sokhna.

“We are trying to take Dhruv’s statement so that the real cause of the accident can be revealed. An FIR has been registered at Bhondsi police station,” said a police official.
