    Always this collision with bikes and motorcycles and buses.God when this will stop.?One has to keep up rules when taking a u turn.Not simply turn and run away.Better keep a sign at turning point .and should also follow it.Too many vehicles on road .and road is becoming too arrow for them.Police too must now watch the traffic and see that it functions smoothly wish biker all the best.

    No point in blaming anybody. Donot issue licence unless one gains proper driving skill and road rules. Scientific roads with signs like, give way, stop, R/A rules, lane hanging, extra lanes to take a u turn /right lane. No phone, helmet covering hand rather than head. This is the only way to reduce the accidents. As long as 2 wheelers understand the value of their life, no one can stop these accidents.

    Private buses are biggest threat to everyone the way they drive recklessly as the police are blind to take action.

    Best way to reduce road accidents. is to abolish the private bus mafia in the twin districts of Mangalore (D K) and Udupi.
