Kaup, Jan 5: A scooter rider died after sustaining serious injuries after a collision with a private bus on National Highway 66 at Pangala on Monday.

The deceased has been identified as Krishna, a resident of Padukere.

According to sources, Krishna was riding his scooter from the service road towards the highway near Pangala when a private bus travelling from Udupi to Mangaluru collided with the two-wheeler.

Due to the impact, the scooter rider suffered severe injuries and was immediately shifted to a private hospital for treatment, where he breathed his last. 

The accident caused temporary disruption to traffic as the bus remained stationed in the middle of the road. NSUI district president Saurabh Ballal, who was present at the scene, assisted in moving the bus to the roadside to ease traffic flow.

Kaup police rushed to the spot and conducted an inspection. Further investigation is under way.

    There is no respect and concern for two wheeler drivers on highways. Government should limit speeds of Public transport buses to 60 KM per hour max or mark dedicated lanes for autos and two wheelers on highways. This will save a lot of innocent lives.
