The accident occurred near the Kalvi Pyau railway crossing in the Mahamandir area, where a large crowd of onlookers gathered and recorded videos that have since gone viral on social media. Footage from the scene shows the XEV 9e completely immobilised on the tracks, with extensive damage to its left side, a dislodged front fascia, and visible impact damage extending to the rear section of the SUV. Police later removed the vehicle from the tracks, while the cause of the crash remains under investigation.

According to preliminary reports, the incident began when a woman driving the SUV in Jodhpur's BJS area was involved in a collision with a motorcycle. The impact reportedly caused her to lose control of the vehicle, which then breached the railway crossing barrier and entered the tracks.

In an attempt to move the SUV to safety, the driver reportedly tried to turn and reverse the vehicle, but one of the tyres became lodged between the rails, leaving it stranded on the tracks. Authorities temporarily halted train movement in the area while the vehicle was removed, although a potentially serious accident was averted as a Jodhpur-Jaipur train was travelling on a parallel line.
