    Due to widening and straightening of roads, drivers become complacent and zoom at speeds much higher than that restricted for our roads; moreover vehicles rear ending parked container trucks is also on a dramatic rise! Even though these containers are parked on the left , a small distraction or mistake by a speeding vehicle can lead to catastrophic consequences; parking of heavy vehicles should be banned & only allowed on certain designated spots along with safety indicators for the safety of speeding vehicles! Also, drivers should apply speed governors so that they cannot speed beyond 100 kmph! This place holds the record for the highest number of fatal RTAs in the world!

    The accident may have occurred due to insufficient sleep, driving under the influence of alcohol, or rash driving. To prevent such incidents, the vehicle owner should ensure that the driver is well-rested, not under the influence, and follows safe driving practices before allowing them to operate the vehicle.

    Parking huge containers on highways is a big distraction for ongoing speeding vehicles!
