    There is no any speed limit anywhere in our cities.town. That’s the reason these vehicles drive very fast. Driving in mangalore ,it’s like a race. The traffic police , they stand in a their one regular corner and full fill their monthly kota. In every town and cities should fix cc cameras and whoever drive recklessly and over speed limit , put fine . They can at least try to minimise daily accidents .

    it is really scary to drive along with a truck as most of them are either overloaded or the load is not distributed properly...especially in rainy season extremely dangerous...

    Sure the truck has exceeded its capacity of weight. The truck should be crushed and the drivers license should be revoked but this is India not is going to happen

    Sad news RIP to Lokesh. I would like to blame our Traffic police for all these types of accidents. Mostly now youngsters are driving the havey licence vehicles. Better to check the genuineness of the driving license. Police must check every day almost all vehicles. Nowadays youngster without job, do driving vehicles. If traffic department Police are strict, we can reduce the accidents.
