Cyrus Mistry was killed in a road accident in Palghar on Sunday afternoon after the Mercedes he was driving collided with a divider. The accident took place around 3.15 pm, when Mistry, 54, was travelling from Ahmedabad to Mumbai in Mercedes-Benz GLC SUV. As per police, the accident took place on a bridge over the Surya river at Charoti Naka, around 120 km from Mumbai. The Mercedes car covered a distance of 20 km in just nine minutes after crossing the Charoti check post in Maharashtra’s Palghar district, 120 km away from Mumbai. Cyrus Mistry and co-passenger Jahangir Pandole were not wearing seat belts.
Today, industrialist Anand Mahindra posted about the importance of seat belts on Twitter. The business tycoon has urged everyone to take the pledge, as they owe it to their families. “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,” Anand Mahindra, the chairman of the Mahindra Group, wrote.
A video by highly reputed Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) showcased what impact on the rear seat passengers in case of an accident. According to IIHS, 90 percent of the people don’t wear a safety belt across the globe, especially when travelling by taxi or ride-sharing service.
Advantages of Wearing a Seat Belt

The seat belt will hold you in the ideal position if your car begins to skid or spin
— Prevents Ejection
Your seat belt will keep you inside your car and increase your odds of surviving a crash
— Distributes Impact Force
Your lap and shoulder belt will distribute the impact of the force over the strongest parts of your body.
— Helps the body to match the speed of vehicle
Wearing a seat belt keeps you secured to your seat, so your body also slows if your car stops suddenly.
— Protects brain and spine
Wearing a seat belt keeps the passenger secured to the seat so the body also slows if the car stops suddenly.
