Telangana-best roads - high accidents?
Today’s Tsrtc bus accident at cheruvugattu Jagtial ghat road with high fatalities bring to light the persistent problems of our system.
Some points gathered but only preliminary are1- Bus driver was under alcohol,2- Passengers fell on the driver while driving at a turning3- The roads look superb on the ghats.4- The accident happened in day light.
Points to ponder - The training of public transport drivers is not vigorous
- There is over loading of bus (60passengers )Excess were standing
- There is no possibility for passengers to fall on the driver if there was separators from passengers cabin/ railing etc
-while hill driving principle- of drive a gradient in the same gear as you ascend and descend is neglected or not followed /trained .
We must find ways to advice seat belts to all seated passengers like in airplanes.
Just stating that breaks must have failed seem a knee jerk statement.
All bus passengers must be insured for accidents by Tsrtc.
Finally let small sized or medium sized vehicles must be allowed to pass in ghat roads like Uttarakhand.
Invite more suggestions and analysis from readers. more

Instead of seeking the best of treatment facilities to these trauma victims which the present Telangana non city areas are lacking,there is bickering by opposition parties .The compensation is a definite need for the dead but the living must be given quick, definitive high quality service. All private med college hospitals. District hospitals ,lack the infrastructure, training, personale. We must concentrate on the response time of ambulance facility and paramedics capabilities .I was a victim and i had hell .I am in the medical profession and how there is no quick response team, facility ,ability at non city level. God save us. more

This is very common in all states. We can’t blame Govt. Public including drivers are totally responsible for our own fate. more
