According to Steel Plant Police Station Inspector of Traffic G Umamaheswar Rao, the rider who lost his life must have lost control of his vehicle due to high speed. He also assured that the road was wide and clear with proper illumination. The cop said they are yet to ascertain if the rider and the fellow passengers were in an inebriated state.
