    Its unfortunate to witness the loss of life ! These recur but no corrective action. NGOs and Media atleast can launch a citizen move against this launch a safety initiative. Jago Grahak Jago. Rama Sene Bhima Sene Talibaan also can support these social causes and chip in.

    all bus drivers think Mangalore is a big auto drome and they can drive in full speed and in a way they want.

    so all have to beware and keep safe distance.

    Looks like Traffic police are busy in their own world. That is why every day one or the other major accidents are happening in Mangalore and people are dying without their fault. Why drivers are not following traffic rules, why they want to competite with each others bus and kill people. Dakshina Kannada's traffic police are useless police, that is why day by day accidents are becoming more. Why traffic authority is not strict with drivers.

    It is indeed true, most of the auto drivers have no safety sense at all. You never know to which side they would turn the auto if you happened to be drving behind or front a Riksha. Very hazardous. We can not always blame the bus drivers, though they are also not strictly following the traffic rule. Only stringent punishment will help curbing traffic violations and MVAs.

    Now a days Auto Drivers are also Like Bus Drivers.They Do not follow the Rules.Most of the Drivers are Talking with Cell Phone in one hand.If we ask them to stop the Auto they Talk in Rude Language.They take the Passengers as they doing some Favor. RTO must control the Auto.Most of the Autos they have Altered the Meter by increasing few rupees with out RTO permission.

    As one who drives on Mangalore Roads, my observation is that the autorickshaw drivers are the worst behaved on the roads and disobey every known rule as long as it suits their convenience. In practically every situation Auto drivers bank on on the good traffic sense of other drivers to prevent accidents.
