    When a vehicle is stationed they must make the visibility of vehicle better with lights and other means. Otherwise an unsuspecting vehicle may hit them. Very sad that we are losing people by accidents everyday i am feeling very sad Lets all follow traffic rules to prevent accidents Feeling very sad

    Readers, two wheelers are a menace, as riders ride recklessly, often without helmet.. Moreover, these guys may be under the influence of " Substance Abuse " which causes hallucinations....

    Dear people average speeding is normal on 1 way roads. This accident hapens when we try to overtake a vehicle thinking that otherside gap is free as its oneway. But unfortunate thing was truck was stationary. And we cant escape from hit. Therefore try to drive responsibly . Look for front vehicle movments. Slowdown before overtaking. Stay safe mangloreans.

    In our country there are no rules followed by road users. The truck should have placed the triangle shaped reflectors warning others of broken down truck ahead well in advance preventing these mishaps.
