Mandya, Nov 23: In a head-on collision between a goods tempo and Tata Sumo passenger vehicle at Nagamangala in the district on Friday November 22, eight lives were lost on the spot. 

The Tata Sumo was moving towards Bellur from Nagamangala when a goods tempo that was moving towards Nagamangala from Bellur collided with it. The survivors of this accident have been admitted into Adichunchanagiri Hospital in Nagamangala with serious injuries.

    After driving in Dubai for so many years, going back and driving on Indian Highways became a mess. First of Road Quality is so poor, Unnecessary Barricades and Road humps, One Way Road is just a dream, Most of the Auto and Bikers are coming from wrong direction always, Even Buses and Trucks Sometimes, No Indian Driver knows about Overtaking lane system. Every Truck Driving in the speed Track. and everyone overtaking from wrong side. to solve all this all the present license should be recalled, and given proper signal and safety lessons before renewing it.

    There is no speed track/lane even in our national highways, except in express ways like mumbai-pune. We can always see the slow moving trucks in the lane adjacent to the road divider which is actually a speed lane. Also most of riders here don't know the basic rules of driving while entering a circle/round about.
