Mangaluru, May 20: A 50-year-old woman died after she fell off the flyover, after a speeding car rammed into her two-wheeler on which she was traveling in Thokottu here on Thursday May 20.

The deceased is identified as Vasanthi (50). Her daughter Shreeja (20), who was severely injured in the mishap, was rushed to Deralakatte hospital.

It is said that while the mother and daughter were plying from Kumpala to Kallapu, the car, which was speeding from Mangaluru towards Talapady, rammed into the scooter, after hitting the divider on the Thokottu flyover.



As a result, the pillion rider in the scooter, Vasanthi, was thrown off from the flyover, and fell on the road below. She succumbed to injuries later.

Naguri traffic police arrived at the spot and took car driver Shamith for inquiry.

    how sad.Nowadays one is never sure if he returns safe home or not.Not ones skill to drive better but negligence during driving,from others ,high speed ,drinking and driving,not keeping up to rules .overtaking etc.everything counts.Not only that many speak on mobile while driving ,that takes off their attention to concentrate on driving.Feel so sad to her .May her soul rest in peace.Pray the injured may get fast recovery to good health.The Family must get compansation from who caused the accident.Heartfelt sympathy to the family.

    RIP Shanti amma. The problem of driving fast is that the road looks smooth but if you look closely it is slightly uneven throughout and can cause the four small wheels of a car to wobble.

    Young age... Car drivers name itself is enough to understand the scene.. Car Manufacturers, Technocrats and Police should think how technically the problem can be solved. It is better to forget changing the attitude of people, restricting youngsters, advising road rules, workshops, seminars etc. No use...

    Shocking and heart breaking to hear such a tragic news. Vasanthi aunty was calm and soft spoken. She will be missed. Praying that Shreeja will get well soon.

    RIP!! Get well soon Sreeja!! The district administration should have a look into the stretch of the road from Kallapu junction to the flyover. May be two potholes patch work is creating problems to passengers
