One person was killed and three others were critically wounded after a speeding car overturned on the Delhi-Jaipur expressway near Iffco Chowk in Gurugram early Monday morning, the police said.
Though it was not clear how the accident took place, investigators suspect that the driver may have lost control due to speeding and poor visibility and overturned after ramming into the divider.
They said that no other damaged vehicle was found near the spot, ruling out the possibility of a collision.
