The Tractor was obviously parked on the fast lane without any HAZARD signs
placed at a safe distance to the rear of the Tractor, to alert any oncoming vehicle
– inviting such a disaster, as one will notice in the above photographs, a saffron
color cloth tied to a stick – which is a common sight of all those working on NH66,
be it graders, mobile cranes, dozers, or dumpers.
The traffic police should take to task such contractors and those at loss should
demand full compensation. Only then these stupid people will learn how to work
professionally.
