Twitter users lambasted the car driver for his actions with severe words.

Utter negligence on the part of Car Driver. He should have first checked the side mirror for any vehicle coming from back and then open the door.

My cousin too, only son of my mausi, has expired on 31st night due to negligence of a car driver and now a police case has been booked. But what about the person who has left us? How can you fill that gap?

Dhanalakshmi died on the spot whereas Sashirekha suffered injuries. Her father was unscathed.

Sashirekha, speaking with an Indian news agency, said that she regained consciousness at a hospital. The woman said she came to know about her daughter’s death after reaching home.

The car had two unpaid traffic challans since December 2022 for overspeeding, amounting to ₹2,070.

Police, terming it a case of negligence, arrested the car driver and booked him under sections 304-A (death by negligence), 337 (rash driving) and other sections of the Indian Penal Code.
