Former Tata Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry and a co-passenger killed in a car crash were not wearing seat belts, as per a preliminary probe, and speeding and the "error of judgment" by the driver caused the accident, a police official was quoted in PTI report.
Over the update in the accident case that concerned with wearing seat belts and one's safety, industrialist Anand Mahindra tweeted to pledge on wearing belt even if he travelled on a back seat.
"I resolve to always wear my seat belt even when in the rear seat of the car. And I urge all of you to take that pledge too. We all owe it to our families," he tweeted while learning the details over Cyrus Mistry's accidental death.
