    Daiji World reports atleast one accident a week where a tipper is involved. Either there is no vakue for human lives or the authorities dont have the guts to do something to curb this menace

    These tipper trucks are plying several times in a day as they carry road construction materials to the highway widening process from their mixing site which is more than 10 to 15 kms away on a narrow road which connects to the highway from Polali side which has many curves and if they don't reduce the speed it is more dangerous for other commuters. The company should relocate their plant nearer to the construction site which will save time and fuel too.
