Head on collision. Unexplainable. Drivers of private buses turned Speed Demons do not care about the other road users. About 60% are said to be users of some form of narcotics. via DM iPad app

No 1 culprits for creating traffic congestions and accidents are the three wheelers and bus drivers. Unfortunately few precious lives are lost in this instant. via DM Android App
