A man was killed and his three-year-old daughter critically injured after an ambulance rammed their motorcycle in Venjaramoodu early Saturday.
The vehicle was driven by a nurse who took over from the designated driver, who was exhausted after an overnight trip to Idukki. The mishap that occurred two days after the Vadakkanchery tourist bus accident that claimed nine lives has yet again brought the hazards of fatigued driving in focus.
The deceased was identified as Shibu, 38, of Chempoor in Mudakkal. The toddler, Alankrita, has been admitted to the intensive care unit of a private hospital in Venjaramoodu.
