The police said the accident occurred when the driver, who was believed to be driving at a speed of over 120kmph, failed to control it and rammed into the stationary lorry, which was parked 1.5 metres from the highway.
Minutes after the incident, the police rushed to the spot and tried to identify the victims with the help of the Qualis registration number.
