Very sad. Car might be in good speed, in our Road 40 to 60 is the speed limit in the town, even in this speed if tyre burst could be controllable. Our Highways are very dangerous for two wheelers.

Bike manufacturers must start manufacturing bikes with maximum speed of 60 kms per hour. Powerful bikes must be banned.

Young life paid off due to negligence of Car Driver(before start driver should check conditions of the tyres etc., properly, & limited speed driving is safer)

I was present there when the accident occurred.The bike rider was also at a very high speed and his tyre was also burst. I think that the bike rider was also a reason for that.But after the incident,the cops took a very long time to arrive at the spot.And due to this the traffic was blocked for a long time.We ensure all bike riders to ride safely.
