    Another incident of reckless driving, perhaps without wearing a helmet; another life lost. When will we learn our lessons?

    Once again ,a tragedy in Mangalore...! Last week two young boys died at Perdoor ..! It's very sad to read this news. I think we must submit memorandum to both Mangalore and Udupi SP to take immediate actin to prevent two wheeler accidents. And have discussion to stop road accidents with concerned authority. Anybody interested to join this mission?

    Very sad incident. . whose mistake here? Accident spot looks like in the airport broad road where street lights are clear. If that car driver waited for one minute he could have avoided that accident and now he is responsible for the death of that young boy and heavy loss for his family. May be alcohol influenced driving. Cancel both driving licences so that others can learn lessons.
    if car driver is politically influenced person he will survive in human eyes, but unbearable loss to one mother which nobody could fill. I know pushparaj . He is a very hard working dedicated and family supporter and was a lovable person . RIP friend. Rest in peace.....

    RIP ...
    It is not question of cancellation of driving licences, but not following the rules of the roads by drivers.
    When I was abroad, I used to feel bad about the death of youngsters in bike accidents. But after coming to Mangalore I feel that death is due to rash driving of the riders

    Very sad. Everyday we have to loose youngsters in road tragedies.
    We need reforms in driving schools and testing centers.
    Corruption is killing our young generations.
    May departed souls rest in peace.
    May God strengthen their love ones to bare the losses.

    Unfortunately these youngsters think they are flying a plane on the road. The speed at which they ride is just a nightmare for road users. These youngsters do not know the consequences of their rash
    driving . They may not live to see the consequences but it is for their family to grieve and live with this tragedy for the rest of their lives.

    Cancel all the licences issued to the drivers a like demonetisation.
    Issue new licences with proper training with maximum lane disciplines.
    Those who comment violations for the 2nd & 3rd time should never be given driving licences.
