    This has become a norm on our roads, highways in DK & Udupi districts. Reckless driving, no respect to traffic rules, useless out dated traffic laws & fines, penalties, poor roads & corrupt contractors & public administration. It is a mixture of all and first & foremost is we don't value human life. As usual it is another day with no one held accountable because we are world's largest democracy....!!!!!

    Bannedka has been an accident prone slope/climb since I've known it. I've known several people who have met accidents on this stretch including my father in the 90s.

    This is wont say drivers mistake, Actually other vehicle came from wrong direction DBL Road Contractor is closing Alangar bridge without any prior warning signs, which has caused confusion among drivers. Because of that other vehicle came in wrong direction, And bus lost control and accident happened. Mistake is DBL Road Contractor. Closing the roads and allowing vehicle to cross in wrong direction.

    Drunk driving is one of the main causes of accidents, and bus owners should check whether the driver is under the influence of alcohol before starting duty.
