    No one to be blamed bad roads may be contributed to the incident. This is a pure case of drivers negligence .Liquid container on sudden braking effecting its gravity and can over turn. Do you think the driver was fully trained to operate trailer/tanker??

    The safety of our MLA , MP and Ministers should be taken care under such situations. Thank God nothing happened to them. People are replaceable and does not make much difference if killed in such accidents but our precious MLA , MP and Ministers should be saved.. Their safety should be our first concern. We elect them and they sacrifice their lives for us. So we should ensure their smooth travel. Under their tight schedule if such accidents happen they will not be able to give their selfless services to people because of these delays. I suggest we should have seperate nice roads for them to travel.

    Very lucky for surrounding people and vehicles... This would have been a half kilometer radius disaster... We are left with no choice but to depend on individual abilities of drivers... Accidents are unforeseen... Companies take all safeguards possible yet sporadically such mishaps occur...
