    I think its time that, just like air crash investigations, vehicle manufacturers also understand their roles and investigate the cause of such fires and use technology to avert such fires causing damage to life and property.

    This incident reminds me of a similar accident I witnessed last July when I was in India. I was coming from Murdeshwar, two youths riding a bike near Ottinene, Kundapura hit a pickup truck in high speed from behind and burnt alive.

    I dont think the rider was riding too fast, if that is the case, he should have thrown away from the bike. What a tragic death, RIP.

    Then it also means that bus was not travelling fast..
    (PS- I am not pointing out if it's the bike ride or bus drivers mistake. I don't know . )

    Soo Sad! At least Blanketing with a thin cloth could save the life. Picture showing people are busy in shooting and no one cares to extinguish the fire. I can remember ,
    In UAE 6 month back, a arab women covered a Indian driver with her abhaya, while he was burning.. She saved him and left the place without notice.
