    I generally admire Udupi and South Canara districts as compared to other coastal districts, when it comes to Road conditions on state highways or connecting roads. However nowadays it appears NHAI is not keen on repairing damaged roads. I see so many accident prone zones between Santekatte and Brahmavara due to poor road conditions. Can the Ministers representing Udupi, show little gut and ask NHAI to take this issue on top priority? people's lives matter more than the Govt.

    You guys are commenting on the Car Quality. We are paying Toll + Road Tax but the Road Condition is very bad. Still the Drivers don't know the Rules and Regulations of the fast lane, Heavy Vehicles still moving in fast lane

    See the opened doors of the car there are no safety bars for side impact! normally all advance cars having side impact bars inside door casing. All is cheating looks like.

    Maruti cars safety zero level just tin can, they use same engine across all models & interior is just a Spartan era. No side airbags & after BS6 norms they have made airbags mandatory for front but still no side airbags while hyundai & others start loading safety measures right from.base model.

    I agree. When you ask "Kitha Deti hain" instead "How Safe the car is" this is what happens. The manufacturer tend to make lighter car to achieve more mileage per liter, throwing away safety norms...

    Focus should be on avoiding accident instead of avoiding potholes

    Focus of govt should be on not having potholes in the first place. But ruling party is busy in felicitation of newly appointed ministers. MP is as good as being non existent. People will still continue to suffer and be fooled
