Looks like Parked Lorry had not switched on the back light by parking?And tourist bus was driving with closed eyes?Really so many accidents which could avoided when they only follow rules.Human lives are not valid to these people?Hope nobody lost lives.Wish all the best to them.

Very very poor traffic department. They implement road rules for not all peoples. For ministers going to airport one rules, public must maintain speed limit. If our traffic Police department takes good serious step,then only we can control. Otherwise no use of any comments.

This is the problem with our National highways , totally irresponsible planning- No Bus bays and Truck bays for Vehicles to stop . Criminal cases be filed against the highway authorities, police and RTO for these injuries and deaths .
