    Killer Buses of Mangalore!!!! So many lives lost because of these reckless drivers . Wonder why society is not doing something drastic to stop these lunatics . It’s obvious that the RTO , Police and politicians have been pocketed by the Bus Mafia . Another precious life lost - Sad state of affairs in this otherwise peaceful district.

    Two wheelers should ban on ride on fast track.
    similarly overtaking from left side of the vehicle should penalized.
    No honky ponky unnecessarily while overtaking.

    The bus drivers are in hurry because they have to maintain timings. If they don't, that will affect the days collection because at the end of the day it is a private bus and the owner has to earn money.which means people keep on dying like this for someone's greed. Solution--- run government busses on these roads.

    sad this beautiful kid lost its life due to stupidity of driver,.. he should be jailed till death.. Kundapur to mangalore buses do go on roads.. they fly and no one are bothered as well... police people just watch them like a movie scene and keep quite.... not only bus but police should be blamed because no serious action has been taken till date for driving like that... if the person driving commit mistake and has good money .. he is left free... the bus drivers and tipper drivers think they are pilots and drive the bus.. men inside such buses also keep quite until something happen. After accidents happen.. everyone start pelting stones at the bus or lorries and the public property is damaged.. why cant anyone stop the bus driver while he is over speeding... why such negligence in us.... because of such drivers we have lost a innocent kid.. feeling very bad for their family... may god give strenght to thier family

    Indian roads are among the most dangerous in the world. Yet, it is strange that nothing is being done to improve this situation. Lives are being lost regularly on a daily basis all over the country and our law makers are not even talking about that. They are just not bothered and that is because we don't value human lives in our country. Even in the case of Mangalore, several accidents have taken place around Nantoor and nothing is being done to prevent more accidents. Probably, things will be different if a minister meets with this fate.

    These private buses should be given permit to run only after they attach speed controller device, the driver cannot accelerate above 60 kmph speed, Kerala state is strictly imposed with this rule.

    Ivar, it is not just the question of speed but the driving manners and sense. These reckless bus drivers are capable of crushing others even without speed. The day when they realize the two wheelers and pedestrians are to be respected the most, these accidents get reduced drastically. RIP little girl. Hope others injured recover quickly.

    Bus owners lobby is stronger than police, politicians. They are above common law.
    I have seen the cases where buses and its drivers come back to work even before the victim is cremated. The department will give brake inspection report so fast, that even highly developed countries cant match...the release of bus takes place in lightning mode.....such efficiency is shown by our department...

    We want Government buses which have speed governors all over Dakshina Kannada. Ban private buses. UT Khadar as the district incharge minister should work on this with the transport minister of Karnataka. I request all residents of DK to put pressure on the minister for sanctioning more government buses.

    This is a familiar practice by the bus people ...Even I had complained many times with photographs in the WhatsApp number given by Mangalore traffic to give complaints about the traffic issues but no use...Even I asked them what action had been taken ..and there is no reply..You can see the arrogant driving and unwanted parking in the cities and the traffic people are still busy with collecting fine from million rider in a two wheeler without hamlet...
