Overwhelming reactions
The accident evoked overwhelming reaction on the social media. A user wrote, “Totally Bikers fault. He has to slow down nearing the turn. Car was slow and was turning normally. During turn in such small roads, the car will surely pass slightly through other half of road which is why the opposite lane cars need to slow in such junctions.”
Another user remarked, “Those who drive motorcycles at high speed should always remember that any vehicle can appear at any time from the narrow alleys adjacent to the main road, If you are not concerned about your motorcycle, that’s fine, but do worry about your life, Your family is waiting for you at home.”
