    Dude.. why do you want to bring political parties name in every tom dick and harry? FYI the express highway work was started by Vajpayee govt... so better feel sorry for the expired ones or write some comments on the person who dies in such over speed accident instead of commenting on political parties... Even if you do anything to roads to avoid accident over speed only kills the person... I know how some guys/especially muslims from that area rides their bikes in bc raod to mangalore highways... i was travelling in these roads since a very long time. sitting far and commenting is easy buddy.

    Motor bikes are killers on the roads especially when the roads are wet and speeding cause such accidents. It is very difficult to avoid during such situation and these young blood riding such high speed bikes have to be very very careful. May his soul RIP. One precious life last.

    May His Soul RIP.
    One glance at the picture it is very obvious that this accident was purely due to youthful exuberance coupled with a pair of very worn out tyre's. The most dangerous combination in wet condition's, i can say after having miraculously survived two of this type incidences in my younger days.These days family commitments has made me more conscious of carefully riding , but i have to be extra careful to watch out for other careless riders who do not have a clue or any sense of self preservation on two wheels.

    When we drive cars, we see a lot of youngsters overtake 4 wheelers by riding zig-zag and very often overtaking our vehicles from left, which is a breech of driving rule, but who cares! When questioned, they in fact, threaten us using bad words. As a result one or the other day this sort of accidents take place. May his soul rest in peace.

    Tony. this is true. Normally this happens on Udupi-Manipal road around 8.45/9 am. Infact Interceptor comes in evening around 5-6 pm. If they are present in morning hours, probably most of the vehicles which speed can be given a challan to pay fine.

    Why hot blood of youth drives them to adventure speed-bikes, sports-cars n girls(for boy)/boys( for girl) ? Loss of life is irreversible. Youth when they realize hard facts of life, time would hve been over. Control... Control Please.

    we read 'speed kills' but fail to realise that it is an alert for us.

    however, pray 'rest in peace' for the departed soul.
