    It is not always the drivers fault.. sometimes it's the other vehicles too.. I was on my way to Bangalore in a KSRTC red bus and a car was speeding towards our bus, the driver took the vehicle on wrong side and we and the passengers in the car were saved. If not for the bus drivers presence of mind we would have been history. The police filed an FIR against the driver and he is on punishment duty. But we are all grateful to him that he saved us all.. The government should install cctv cameras on all high ways and roads have to be sufficiently broad and without pot holes.

    For the love of God pls pls pls pls cap max speed of 40km/hr. We r not do some big metro city - our businesses can operate with low speed transport. Mangaluru is approx 40km its not a big city if MCC ever cared their mothers they should limit speed at 40km. And install full mirrors at all turns. God pls have them buddi

    It looks like the car collided head on with the bus. The bus has the impact on the driver side headlight meaning it left sufficient space at the inner side of the road for vehicles coming from front.

    Please dont speculate unnecessarily. You should see how these RED KSRTC buses drive on highways. They absolutely don't hit on brakes even when they are overtaking and vehicle approaches in front.. they are extremely reckless. Govt should strictly limit the power/speed of these red buses.
