    19 yr old young boy riding a scooter past midnight...!!!!, sorry to see young life being lost ..., the NH 66 Balaipade curve is a dangerous spot... blank spot... difficult to negotiate & control at high speed.(in fact both side i.e., M'lore to udpi, & Udpi to M'lore it is downwards gravity make it even more difficult to control at high speed), It is a death knell spot., need scientific & engineering solution., Flashing hazard light during night to caution drivers may be a primary solution., Many lives were lost since ages.,
