    RTO kindly make rule that all trucks should use the roads and last lane. Many of our riders either coming under trucks or Govt. buses. RTO has to take strict action or we are going to loose our youngsters.

    The stretch between Mangalore to Kundapur is very notorious and is know for reckless driving. Trucks, bikes and good tempo ply on the right side, driving on tye wrong side is rampant, fish trucks pour fish water on the road, etc etc. This particular accident looks like was the mistake of the biker, since he should have maintained safe distance and that is the law. I am from Kudla but live in Manipal. In about 7 years i have seen traffic checking just about two times. Kudla fairs much better. Udupi should follow suit soon to avoid accidents.
