    Very sad incident. Last week when i was travelling towards puttur there was an major accident near kaladka between bus and jeep. So our bus got struck for about an hour until everything gets cleared. During that time i spoke to one of the mangalorean based KSRTC bus driver. He was of opinion that he has worked in KSRTC bus in most of the places of Karnataka, but he is finding more difficult to drive buses in our districts as the people from our districts never follow the traffic rules properly. They think as if it's their own personal roads
