    Please note public, how nandini milk supply vehicles running on the road, very fast and careless driving, as if they think, they are going to some emergency supply.

    Milk Man is seems bit hurry!he want to deliver the milk at it's time and at any cost!even the human's life.Speeding vehicles should be impounded for certain time and cancellation the permit of the said vehicle and the licence of the driver's too.

    Mr.Martis sorry to say.In India word safety is taboo.Human life is so cheep and taken as granted for anything.I agree that quickly perishable food like milk to be transpored in refrigerated van.Samples to be checked on day to day basis.When do we get responsible leaders to implement such basic neccessities?

    These vehicles on time must reach the destinations so always Milk & Press drivers drive very rashly,if late then agents shouts the drivers for the late arrival.

    Looking at the truck carrying milk,
    question comes, is there a safety requirement for trucks carrying health related product like Milk?
    I don't see it here. It is going to be a long way before health dept and Police enforce strict code of requirements. Health Dept and Police, please wake up.
