    Thank God, no one got injured and not much damage to the bikes. Police should ban such huge trucks plying on road in daytime. Due to the conditions of the roads day-by-day people are becoming impatient and everyone is in a hurry to overtake one or the other vehicle. Trucks transporting cars, bikes, tobacco etc. should be allowed on roads only in night to avoid road congestion and accidents like this
