    Accident '' the word itself is the result of speed, careless Ness, hurry. My condolences to the berieved family. Auto is the means of living for them. I felt very sad because they are hard working people. Means of earning is gone to the family. In such cases local authorities or government or doners should help the family of the deceased .Actually there is no hump in the maroli route so far as I know. Dangerous curves are there too.

    If the driver had driven with caution, he would have been alive. Clearly it was a case of overspeeding and careless driving. Feel sad for the family of the driver and those who were injured. Remember one thing that you may have paid road tax but road doesn't belong to you but everyone.

    The lorry owner should be taken to custody as well, if he is alive.

    We need to blame both the stationary truck and the auto driver. Surely, from the impact it shows that
    auto rickshaw was plying at high speed. It's the drivers duty to keep control and drive carefully.

    From years together that vehicle is standing on the road side it's a seized vehicle. Why are these seized vehicle parked other road side where a footpath has to be paved. The road have a huge road edge. Next we need steps to climb them. This is sheer negligence from the authority. Who will be blamed. A young life has been lost. Police department the municipal corporation. What are they doing. Mr. Mayor its not enough to change names and build clock tower. Look into these matters.
