Fri, Mar 01 2019No Barricades, no warning signs, I would call the Roller operator as a totally irresponsible character (Not human at all).
Very sad. RIP young Jayatnh.

Fri, Mar 01 2019Very sad we lost a youngster. We see in Mangalore various types of vehicles parked on the road and obstructing and confusing the other drivers and riders. In Mangalore we see so many school/college buses parked on the roads, what are the police doing?

Fri, Mar 01 2019So the road roller is occupying 60% of the road and you call it "Parked By The Road Side"? The driver and the contractor who should made responsible for unfortunate death of a young lad.
RIP Jayanth.
