    Mohammed Najeeb, Mangalore: Accidents happen when both the vehicles at the same speed. if ur in controllable speed overturning/ hitting compound wall doesn't happen. Because the brake will control the car when someone in controllable speed. Even I do driving and faced such situations many a times. for ex almost met into such an incident yesterday also... The person who was travelling in a Swift car didnt even put brake and slowed down the car in a curve, but sensing that before only i put the brake and my car came to standstill. the opposite person finally applied the braked when it was just a feet away from me and dint even bothered to stop the car and ran away.

    first of all let me bring to your attention that READ PROPERLY WHAT HAS HAPPENED HOW THE ACCIDENT TOOK PLACE THEN PASS YOUR HIGHLY EXPERIENCED COMMENTS. WHY IS IT against the law/illegal to go out at 4am??? RECKLESS DRIVING?? WHERE
    YOU THERE AT THE SPOT TO SAY IT WAS RECKLESS DRIVING??? i don't have to give whackos like you explanation but What really happened here was suddenly a car took a very fast right turn at as the vento younger inexperienced driver panicked avoid crashing into the other car which could be even more fatal chose to hit the wall of the hotel wall & crashed into it.

    IF AT ALL IT WAS FAST RECKLESS DRIVING THAT HOW COME NOT A SINGLE I REPEAT SINGLE BRAKE MARK ON THE ROAD. WE ARE NOT EXPERTS HERE BUT YOU are free & CAN VERIFY THESE FACTS at the police station and from the driver when fully recovered, from where did u get this communal angle i really have no idea

    Mohammed Najeeb, Mangalore: I guess now you know the exact cause for this accident as their relative (fouzia, mangalore l dubai)only told the reason that they guys were over speed... so its clear that over speed only the reason and not the other vehicle. What do u say now.. better u should understand before commenting and not us... Always over speed will be the cause for accidents....

    Mohammed Najeeb, Mangalore/Mangalore or Yasir, Mangalore : After the incident people should say let them get well soon... But can you tell me what these young guys were doing at 4 AM? Were they coming back from any office at that time? Its definitely a case of reckless driving and nothing else. Do you guys say these guys are very good even if someone who was in another vehicle or walking on the street or sleeping on the street was dying due to this accident?

    Luckily nothing had happened to others lives. We should thank god for that. Parents should have taken care of their kids... and others from society cant teach them lesson and ask them to go in the right way. If others will say also then they will start the communal fight too... AM I wrong.. only people who can change such guys are only their parents and not others...

    hisham, mangalore- If you know the truth then reveal it. why you dont want to tell it? we are ready to hear the truth. I guess the guys wanted to do the testing of the car by speeding as its a new car. now the doctor has to do the test of them

    I was working in night shift. This road connects my home and office. I was supposed to start at 4 from the office which is at ten min distance from the spot. But due to a friend of mine i got delayed for 30 mins. When i saw the accident at 5 am....I was shocked. Hope all guys get well soon. The car is fully damaged. Fortunately there were no poor people sleeping there or anyone walking or else this would be disastrous. Even me lucky as if the car would have hit me, i wouldn't be here writing this.

    Dear Bryan, agree the kids were wrong speeding,but SYMPATHIES DEFINITELY go out at a time like this to the families of the affected,I personally know the families & the boys good families, good boys BUT MISTAKES do happen NOBODY'S PERFECT cant imagine people like can be so hard hearted. I don't know u bryan but god forbid if something like this happens to you or your family definitely i will be the first person to sympathize. Mistakes do happen BOYS at that age, instead of Blaming we as a society should see to it that such mistakes don't happen in the future.

    It looks majority were teenage boys or just above. May be the person who was driving may not be having a driving license. The location where it happened is not a straight road and hence experienced driver or a person will not drive at that speed and lose control of the vehicle. This accident could have been avoided.

    Thank God no innocent pedestrians or bystanders got involved in the accident!!

    But, the way the accident has taken place it is for sure the vehicle was at very high speeds probably the after effect of the late night party euphoria!! Jai Hind!!

    Cannot Imagine the Accident.. How does it occurred...

    This building (presidency complex) is about 20 ft away from the concrete road, and it is touching the Incometax office building. The Income tax building's compound wall is very much close to the concrete road, and if the Car was plying from railway station towards KMC, how can it go completely go away about 20 ft to hit South india hotel, without even hitting the compound of income tax office.. Look at the swing here... The car looks like angled almost 75-80 Degree.. Cant Imagine..
    Poor, South india hotel.. This is 2nd damage to the Hotel in last 5 years...

    This is just writing not verbal sorry if you felt hurt, everyone has a right to an opinion, and everyone has a right to speak. But that doesn’t mean all opinions have equal value. And that doesn’t mean that all opinions deserve to be heard. .

    Dear Alden. I do agree with the freedom of speech. But nobody has the right to hurt someones feelings by free speech. Human beings are sensitive by nature. I only objected for the brother Bryans statement when he said they deserve to be hospitalized. We are civilized people. Should known to greet each other with peace and respect.

    Volkswagen Manufacturers think will a prize to 'any mechanic 'who can bring the car to it's 'nearest original shape'
    This Vento now looks like a cross between a Punto and a Dio!
    God knows what the kids were doing at 4 a.m. on the road!

    Wish for their speedy recovery and their parents to take good care of them....

    Whoa!! All under-aged guys! Heard the one who was driving did not have a license. Time for parents to act wisely. Give them a new "registered" car if they have a license only!

    Hope the guys get well soon.
