    These are neither blind spots nor black spots. For a location to be a blind spot, there needs to be something hindering the view, such is not the case at the junction of Mahesh Hospital, the road is an open highway on either sides. It's just that the drivers/riders travel recklessly here. Agreed that a foot overbridge is needed for pedestrians here to cross the road. Rest is due to the negligence, recklessness, urgency and irresponsibility of the riders/drivers.
