    Carry: How do you know he wasn't driving? Do you know who was driving if not anthu?

    does anyone know what really happened? I would really like to know the truth.

    And also if you don't have anything good to say, then please stay out of this message board.

    Anthu, we miss you. We love you, but we know you're in a better place now.

    These youngsters should realise that when they drive a smaller vehicle with one or two occupants, the overall weight of the vehicle is quite light. In the middle of the night when the road is empty, they tend to over-speed in a smooth concrete road like PVS-Kottara Road. Particularly at the curves, during over-speeding, the vehicle will not obey to the commands of drivers and the vehicle tend to move in a straight line and if the drive forces to take a sharp turn, the lighter vehicle will just topple, the doors will open violently, the occupant will get thrown out and tragically the vehicle will roll over them. That is what exactly must have happened to this young final year Engineering College going kid. Very sad indeed! This is the warning to those kids of this age group who is confident that they have total control over the wheel. Please note, when the vehicle is over-speeding, always change the gear just before the curves so that the engine will control the speeding wheels and the tyres will have better road grip at the curved roads.
    My deepest condolences to his dear and near ones! May Antony's soul rest in peace!

    Though I'm not sure I guess-
    This boy was travelling at that time certainly might be inebriated & to top it he wasn't riding a 2 wheeler but a 4 wheeler & it is most likely the seat belt was just an ornament which could have prevented his grievious injuries.
    Any ways-May his soul rest in peace, my heartfelt condolences to his family.

    Very sad indeed! While I am don`t how this tragic accident took place, I know for sure the so called concrete median or the road dividers are very dangerous, especially for the two wheelers, and one has to be very careful while driving during night hours. Because of the poor lighting, one cannot see them easily. The Road and Transport Authorities should highlight the road dividers, the zebra crossings and also the speed breakers by painting them in bright colours, preferably in yellow, so that they are easily visible to the motorists.

    Very sad incident.Pray for the soul to rest in eternal peace.Parents nowadays provide car to young children but they don't understand the safty aspects of driving.Most of them are too much over confident.This is main the reason for accident.
