Karkala, Jul 21: Around 25 persons were injured after a bus carrying college students rolled off the road at Gudiyadka here on Tuesday July 21.

The accident took place when the bus, carrying around 40 students, was going towards BBM College.

It is said that the driver of the bus veered to the side in order to give way for another vehicle to pass. However, as the road was narrow, the bus fell off the road and plunged into a stream.

    Let the injured get well soon.

    A chief minister who can not even provide proper roads to people should resign and quit.

    Here is a case of an accident whereby the driver of the bus assumed that there was sufficient space on the left ad tried to gave way to another passing vehicle.

    May be it was an error in judgement and recklessness is not involved.

    Hope the injured will recover.

    These days the accidents are increasing. Little of speed limit and extra attention by the driver could avoid such accidents, specially during rainy season. Hope and pray all are recovering without any major damage. Dear private bus owners please instruct your drivers, it is not the money which is important but the life of the passengers. God bless you all.

    Just the impatience of smaller vehicles to over take slow moving bigger vehicle causes this. They dont imagine difficulties of driver in the bigger vehicle
