    For all those children / boys on high way with scooter and motor bike- I squarely blame the parents . These irresponsible parents have no elk about what they are trying to make about their children’s future. There are countless boys on road who don’t follow traffic rules or law of the land . They are reckless but , ofcourse it’s their age which makes them like that - but where is brains of these wayward kid’s parents ? If we scan the whole nation’s new paper we see only Coastal Karnataka and Kerala which has highest number of bike accident and fatality in comparison to our population.

    Young drivers/riders do not have sufficient road sense. They need to be put through a special training before a license is granted to them. Otherwise many more young lives will be lost. The trouble is even greater for the survivors. Some of these cannot lead a normal life, even if they receive the best treatment in the world.

    RIP to the departed soul... Wishing a speedy recovery to the survivor... We must always judge the situation during dangerous maneuvers like overtaking... This is most necessary when oncoming vehicle is a loaded truck... Bigger vehicles have less ability to be controlled in the last moment...

    People do not wear helmets & 3 to 4 people ride in a two wheeler. I have recently been to this area and was shocked at such careless attitude of riders. In addition rash & negligent driving ,overtaking etc Hope people change their attitude from now on & start following the safety protocals. Helmets are meant for the safety of inidividuals not govt
