Sad incident. May god give strength to his family.
Agree...
While tagging Ashok or naming his wife would be deeply wrong, I really hope this incident causes discussions of the right kind. All too often, we ignore safety and commonsense, and sweep everything under the carpet, thinking accidents and bad things only happen to somebody else; the reality only hits home when that somebody else is someone we know personally.We don't need to wait for laws to be framed, to ban children in the front seat or to force us to wear seatbelts. We owe it to our families and we owe it to ourselves, to do that much. I saw many people on facebook, under the guise of showing solidarity with Ashok's wife, claiming there was nothing wrong with having unsecured kids in the front seat, and that they themselves grew up in in the same way etc etc. This is bullshit. Just because our guardian angels were working overtime to keep us alive, we can't ignore or discourage commonsense.While Ashok's death is deeply tragic and unfortunate, I hope his untimely demise sparks some good discussion. Even if a small number of people, say a 100 parents realize and vow to never allow their children in the front seat, or to remain seated in the backseat, without a seatbelt or child-seat, it would make a big difference, and Ashok's death would probably have not gone in vain.Let's not do our regular thing and sweep all manners of mistakes under the carpet. In fact, lets make it a mission to raise awareness about this issue, even if we don't explicitly take his name (to prevent grief to his loved ones). This is the least that we can do, to a fellow biker./Prashanth

There is a lot of discussions on this incident on FB. And most of it pretty critical of his wife. Many of these comments have tagged Ashok as well. At this point , it may be a little inappropriate to talk about distractions while driving, or about the incident in detail , etc.Might end up increasing the trauma of the wife.

Very Sad.
Couple of years baack...we were travelling near krishnagiri...
my sister insisted the driver to change a song...and mentioned her favorite song..
Driver was distracted...
in 3sec he was about to hit the iron barricade and he suddenly he saw and in 1 sec turned the car towqrds right...
we were lucky thrre was no vehicle behind...otherwise matter would be diiferent
so be alert focussed attentive and sympathetic to everyone...for tragedy is affecting many people...
discuus safe riding tips in public get togethers ..etx
give priority to safe driving.
