The Mangalore, Konaje route buses are flying on the road instead of plying. Reason for these accidents are the timings given for each bus to reach the destination is very limited. To get more passengers buses fly on the road and kill innocent people. First we should punish the owner of the bus and then the agents and last but not the least the police who are not at all serious about preventing accidents.
If police will not punish the drivers who kill innocent people everyday with their greed and carelessness, then surely there will be more such news we can read in future too. |

| It's really heart breaking. By looking at the car we can tell that Indian government is not demanding any safety standard measures. Government should really really need to work on it. or else every day these accidents claim innocent victims life.. |

| Yamraj (kananthur bus as better known here) was heading towards tanker on the wrong side + wrong lane at high speed with headlights on. The, tanker swerved to left and avoided collision but unfortunately the car driver behind did not have enough time to react and the bus crushed them. My prayers with departed souls. I always stop when I see this deadly bus. |

| Accident become common in this route, bcz most of the drivers they think that they have licence to kill the people and they act like pilots. The authorities concerned pls take strict action and if possible give severe punishment to that bus driver |
