    Simple solution to avoid these incidents and mishaps. Follow lane discipline! If a vehicle moving at a faster speed sticks to the right side and vehicles moving at a slower speed sticks to the left side of the road ,there are very less chances of collisions. People are forced to change lanes because some people lack basic common sense of following lane discipline. Btw someone people do this intentionally to annoy other motorists.

    Mangaloreans never go for KL plate because KA19 is an emotion of supremacy. Even Keralites opt for Ka19

    Very tragic and unfortunate. 90% of our drivers and auto as well as two wheelers riders are unfit to drive/ride on public roads. Forget alone the condition of our roads.

    Very sad that the auto driver lost his life for no fault. KL registration four wheelers are a huge menace in town. Now after four years of judgement the punishment will be one year imprisonment and Rs. 1000/- fine non sense. The family should get blood money of Rupees Ten Lakhs since the auto driver is the only bread winner for the family. The judgement should be immediate.

    The car driver was no more than 20 years of age. Give a vehicle to someone under 25 years of age, and regret forever.

    Most of the accidents on Netravati Bridge is KL number cars. Like Covid19 test, Police must check the car licence, insurance certificate, emission test certificate, and mainly deriving licence, if our border chekpost done all above mentioned, then we can reduce 90% KL car accidents. This is what I believe.

    It is observed that most of the KLregistration cars driven by students are rash in driving. They drive always as if they want to catch some planes. In thier home town if they did this they will be beaten by public. Mangaluru is a calm city with most of the public tolerate this highly educated KLregistration cars. they should be first beaten thoroughly so that any poor autorickshaw drivers are not killed next time.

    In todays modern life in Mangalore ,the Car Driver has full AC on and has a modern mobile in one hand and just thinks as if he is like a pilot flying some Aeroplane and mean while has a long never ending conversation over phone, with one hand on the stearing and totally forgets the route or Traffic rules and other vehicles and people arround him. Just he anyhow wants to reach his destination in time. This is now present scenerio in Mangalore. Just horning and chasing vehicles in front. Who cares? This accident must have happened because of this reason only. Poor Auto driver's life is taken. But the Car Driver is always safe in such cases. Such guys should be given 10 years jail term without bail. Let Shyamprasad's soul rest in peace.

    Looks like side collision. No rear damage . Car changed the lane , hit the rickshaw from side, tempo who was behind the rickshaw hit the left rear door of the car. Just guessing. I may be wrong.
