The incident occurred on the Badshahpur-Sohna road late on Sunday night when the car occupants were returning after attending a wedding at Sohna, over 10 km from here.
"The vehicle was speeding and they appear to have missed the diversion board. The vehicle, a Honda CRV, fell into a big ditch, which was dug to construct a culvert," a senior police officer said.
All the four car occupants died instantly. Three of them have been identified as Dinesh, Ameer Singh and Kamal Sharma, while the fourth is yet to be identified.
"Kamal was driving the car while the other three were sitting in the back," the officer said.
The bodies have been sent for post-mortem.
"We have recovered liquor bottles from the car. Whether they were drunk or not will be confirmed after the post-mortem report," the official added.
A case of death due to negligence has been registered at the Badshahpur police station.
