    Many lives are lost due to speeding buses.May his soul rest in peace.Hardly we have any crossing line for people want to cross.Even in mangalore we have less croosing lines .People too sometimes run over the road ,risking life to cross.Traffic control dept.should think over this and make crossing lines in busy roads,so that less people die on roads.and drivers reckless driving too should be controlled everywhere.

    May the soul of the deceased rest in peace. With all due respect, blaming the bus drivers for each and every accident is unfair in a certain aspect. Often, the pedestrians or the people on a 2 wheeler take road safety and rules for granted, by going on the wrong side or not wearing a helmet or being negligent on the road. This consequently leads to them paying the price.
    This however does not take away the fact that buses in Mangalore are pretty recklessly driven. But my point here is to not have our views entirely one sided when it comes to road accidents.

    Don't punish the drivers or owner s . Punishment must be given to RTO officers it is their duty to install speed governance to all the vehicles. Speed should not exceed more than 60 kms per hour at any cost and speed breakers/humph s. In certain places. Then only we can see the reduction of death s in and around mangalore. Otherwise no wonder people will die like this.

    No one is there to ask these bus drivers . They think they are in the skies on a flight ride. Dear so called drivers please remember that like you others have the right to travel on the road not only you. Every one knows that it is road made for service not for race.
