Accused the father of the driver injured in the accident

Balwant Singh, the father of the injured driver, tweeted on April 15. In it, he wrote that his son had an accident due to a defect in the regenerative braking of the Ola electric scooter. He had alleged that the scooter accelerated instead of slowing down at the speed breaker, generating so much torque that the accident took place.

In response, Ola had asked Balwant Singh to investigate the matter. After the completion of the investigation, the company made the telemetry data of the scooter public. Ola had reported that the speed of the scooter was between 95 kmph and 115 kmph on the night of the accident. At the time of the accident, the driver had applied all the brakes simultaneously.
