According to Italian media reports, the police have not filed any charges against 54-year-old Vikas Oberoi at this point. Investigations are ongoing, with the authorities examining various videos captured at the crash site.
The accident took place during the Sardinia Supercar Tour, an event featuring a luxury car parade from Teulada to Olbia, allowing participants to explore the area using rented luxury vehicles.
The collision occurred when Vikas Oberoi's blue Lamborghini attempted to overtake a camper van. Simultaneously, the Ferrari behind them swerved sharply in an attempt to pass both vehicles, resulting in a collision with the billionaire's car.
Tragically, the occupants of the Ferrari lost their lives as their vehicle caught fire shortly after the collision. The Lamborghini's roof was torn off, and the camper van overturned due to the impact.
Although Gayatri Joshi and her husband emerged physically unharmed from the massive collision, they were visibly shaken by the tragic scene, with Gayatri Joshi seen sitting on the road in tears as she gazed at the wreckage of the Ferrari that had veered off the highway.
