    Very sad news.Boy was yery young, is 24.May be new for driving and no long drive experience.One must be extremely cautious in NH especiaally Mangalore Kundapur NH and overconfidence leads to overspeed and accidence.Same age group boys should be desisted from taking the big cars for long drive in Highways.One elder should always accompany the boys while venturing for driving.Its elderss duty to keep a watch on the actvities of youngers

    Speed thrills...but kills..How true? Seems that car was over speeding. May his soul rest in peace. May God grant those drive little more wisdom and drive carefully and don't go out of control. Nowadays, accident deaths are increasing and it is really scary.
