Licence to kill??

Road accidents are on a high these days. I've been giving my ears to road accidents, and all those were due to over speeding of vehicles.

In Kerala, three students were killed in two accidents within the last couple of weeks, even when we were celebrating the road safety week. Even today, the times of india reports a road accident in bangalore, killing a BSNL employee by a truck.

And the most interesting fact is the mob turned furious after the incident. No matter whether it is a bus, a truck or whatever. But why no one in the bus responded before the incident, even though they were aware that the bus was in dangerous speed? I'm happy that they reacted in spite of being dump, but if it were a little early we could have avoided it.
