A late-night drive in Maharajganj nearly turned tragic when a car, following Google Maps, ended up hanging off an under-construction flyover.
The passengers, blindly trusting GPS directions, drove up the incomplete structure. As the road suddenly ended, the driver hit the brakes just in time. The car’s front wheels dangled over the edge, with the rear tires barely gripping the surface.

The shocking incident has raised serious concerns. Many questioned why there were no signs or barricades to warn drivers about the ongoing construction.
It also sparked debate about over-reliance on GPS. In many developing areas, digital maps may not reflect real-time road conditions. Sometimes, they show proposed or incomplete roads as usable paths.
