Enough is enough. It is a serious public health and social problem in our country. The President, Prime Minister, civil Society Organizations and all citizens should come together to deal with this situation. We also have to accept the fact that we are an absolutely indiscipline society. Do we understand the social cost as a results of road accidents!!!. Priority: road safety, responsible driving, law enforcement, no Three wheeler on the road, no children on the motor bike to name a few

Police suspect that the accident could have occurred following the van driver falling asleep on the wheel. YES the Police has the RIGHT TO JUMP TO CONCLUSION IMMEDIATELY. In sri lanka we are trying to set new records each year on reckless driving incidents. We are only good at doing those things that would destroy families. LAND LIKE NO OTHER

This carnage on our roads will never cease until large fines are imposed on errant drivers.

The private van owners accept all hire and assign drivers not giving rest to them. Regulations over private transport services must be imposed.

According to the fotograp the accident took place just off by 3 feet from the single line. But with the ordinance of the traffic it's a Chargeable offense. On the other hand the accident could have avoided by the driver of the bus and his duty is to safeguard his passengers. But we people should avoid the night traveling to escape from the desaster . We pray for their souls to Rest In Peace
