Davangere MLA and his driver escaped unhurt after a car overturned onto their vehicle in Chitradurga district on Saturday. The incident took place on a stretch of road in the district, where a car belonging to Sandeep (47) of Ballari rolled onto the MLA's car.

Sandeep suffered serious head injuries and is undergoing treatment at the Hiriyur public hospital. The MLA and his driver were not harmed. The accident is under investigation.
The MLA's survival highlights the uneven safety record on Karnataka's state highways, where heavy vehicles and speeding cars frequently cause rollovers. The injured driver, Sandeep, is the only person hospitalised, and his condition will determine whether a case of reckless driving is filed. The local traffic police will inspect the vehicle and road conditions before filing a report, which may lead to charges under the Motor Vehicles Act. The next step is Sandeep's medical update from Hiriyur hospital.
