    Now a days there r many on you tube putting up videos of themselves overspeeding on their bikes. Police should take action against such ppl as well as it can influence others to do the same.

    Every week a new bike, with incredible acceleration and fancy hot atire, is launched.. Youngsters desire, dream, of riding these fancy, mean machines, zoom on the roads and highways, just to impress young damsels !!!!! They are least concerned about traffic rules nor accidents, death, incurred, due to their reckless riding !!!!

    Why? Because he was riding fast on a national highway and some lady thought it was funny to hop across the highway with a speed limit of 80kmph? Villagers need to be educated regarding road manners, especially on highways. I had a near miss near Murudeshwar when I was riding at 70kmph and a lady jumped onto my lane from the divider. She stood there staring at me as if I had come into her backyard to run her over. Zero traffic sense is the reason for these accidents and armchair experts like yourself pass such idiotic comments, time and again.

    Ride a bike in busy rush hour traffic especially on Moodbidri - Mangalore state highway or surathkal - Mangalore national highway when Predestrians suddenly cross roads you will really regret how risky the situation is , today similar incident happened to me at mulky bustand an middle aged man suddenly entered the highway in middle of nowhere. It's easy to drive a car at high speeds but when it comes to bike it's a near death experience that's why ABS is mandatory on all bikes today.
