    Keralites don’t have experience in driving on highways, because they have very narrow roads all over Kerala.

    Drive normally,
    It will not happen unless someone tries to make a stunt or circus on the road.
    Normally cars are manufactured according to normal and for safe drive .

    Under 25s drive vehicles as if playing a video game.

    Until the Government introduces special rules for under-25 drivers, we will hear many more such cases.

    What is worse is that those who received serious injuries and continue to live, will have their quality of life reduced to 20%. They might be wheelchair-bound for the rest of their lives.

    Keralites, specially youth should get more training to drive in Mangalore.

    They are trying their Kerala style adventures tricks in other roads wherever they go, even in Bangalore.

    They don't even care Police in Mangalore while driving very dangerously.

    Cars they use even have fancy small number plates sometimes. Why can't our Police take strict action like they take against our two wheel riders.

    These Mallus don’t even respect the local people, even the local elders since they have been taught from the beginning that people of other states are illiterate and fools. It’s in their culture.

    I Agree with you sir, These KL vehicles have become a menace now. I daily commute by this road and experience their rash driving.

    90% of KL vehicles go like crazy. They just hit you from behind and go untraceable. Police have to look into this matter seriously and take stern action . One of my senior friend lost his life because of this and the vehicle is still untraceable. People of Mangalore or People traveling on these highways please be careful.

    Dear sri_elder, Karkala, without lifting off accelerator foot (reducing speed) brake can't be applied as for both paddle same foot is used. Will pls explain the logic of your comment?

    That's what... When you lift foot from accelerator then see what is the engine rpm(idol speed). If it is too high for any vehicle then engine should be calibrated for low idle speed...
    Power transmission should be less when you do not push accelerator
