    The mishap took place at around 5.30 AM, said Navi Mumbai police.

    According to the police, a car was standing on the road as it had a flat tyre, and MUV, was standing behind it.

    Passengers in the MUV had stopped to help those in the first car.

    While the two vehicles had halted, a private tourist bus came from behind and rammed the MUV, which in turn rammed into the car. The three vehicles plunged into a 20ft deep road-side ditch.

    All the three vehicles were coming from Pune.
