    The only driving these so called drivers know is how to "drive other people mad"

    The IGP or the Minister of Transport should travel daily for a period of 3 months with public and private buses to see to which danger the ordinary people of this country are exposed.
    These mad bus drivers are more worst than terrorists. They only escape prosecution because the police is inactive as the bus owners are SSP\s, ASP's oder politico's.
    A leader which loves his country should have sorted this menace out long time ago.

    Galle Road is very dangerous since it was much narrow in some areas. RDA should take a measure in this regard of all roads. Sri Lanka must have at least 6 lane road towards the country.
