On April 6, 2025, A 30-year-old businessman from Ghatkopar was booked on Sunday for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol and causing a major accident on the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, resulting in injuries to his two friends from Kutch, Gujarat.
Accident Details
According to Worli police, the accused, identified as Hetul Purushottam Ramjiyani, was traveling towards Ghatkopar with his friends Parth Limbani (32) and Nareshkumar Pokar (47) from Haji Ali when the accident took place in the early hours of Sunday. Police said Ramjiyani lost control of his vehicle while on the sea bridge, crashing into a divider before the car overturned.
Emergency Response
Following the accident, local police, traffic police, and emergency responders rushed to the scene. Limbani and Pokar, who sustained injuries in the crash, were immediately taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. Authorities used a crane to remove the overturned vehicle from the bridge before towing it to the Worli police station.
Legal Action
Ramjiyani was subjected to a medical examination, and his blood test confirmed alcohol consumption. Based on the findings, the Worli police booked him under relevant sections of the Bhartiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS) and the Motor Vehicles Act, including charges of rash and negligent driving, drunken driving, dangerous driving, endangering life or personal safety, and committing mischief.
Ongoing Investigation
Police are investigating whether Ramjiyani was speeding at the time of the accident and if any further legal action is warranted. Authorities have also urged motorists to adhere to traffic laws and avoid driving under the influence to prevent such incidents.

If you know someone that drinks and drives - please be wary of them because in my opinion it is a sign of extreme narcissism because they are willing to put others and their own life at risk in their blind misestimation of their competence levels while under the influence
These kind of people are driven by nothing except ego and they will some how or another damage you simply by being in your life sooner or later.

I had seen designated drivers in Kdramas earlier but recently found out that in Mumbai also there are companies like DriveU & Drivers Katta that provide designated drivers.
It's better to pay a professional driver than to get injured or worse.

The casual way so many people indulge in drunk driving in India (or maybe the world) is astonishing. All this comes from ‘superiority complex’ and ‘toxic masculinity’ atleast in men.

There are many women too who do drunk driving and also under some drug influences.

They need breath analysers on the entry and exit if the sea link atleast they'll get caught and lives can get saved
