    This stretch of road is very straight and smooth,I think over speeding is definitely the cause. The road between Mangalore and Udupi has become a danger ridden road Luckily no one is hurt here, Thank God

    This is Escape from tragedy for Car people, but Grachara for Rickshaw people. While Car people where lucky enough to escape, Rickshaw people where unlucky to have their vehicle with dent for no fault of theirs.
