    Important that "Speed Governors" are installed on All Heavy Vehicles.... They should be periodically checked ...Their Number plates are not seen...Their Lights/Indicators are non existent...Check them thoroughly and Fine them....

    Cement mixer trucks are another menace mostly driven by drunk drivers. One should see the way they are driven in the narrow roads of Manipal industrial estate. I wonder at time if our traffic police are lethargic or properly trained to identify errant trucks as such.
