The higher the speed, the greater the risk of being pulled under by heavy vehicles and losing the space to stop using the brakes in an emergency. Blind Spots & Underride Danger: Light two-wheelers that collide with the front and underbody of heavy lorries are instantly pulled under the wheels or chassis. Maintaining an adequate safety distance when driving near or overtaking lorries or buses is vital to safety. Lane Discipline and Safety Devices: Dangerous overtaking should not be done on main roads, and full-face helmets of the right standard must be worn properly. Call 1990 Suvasarya Ambulance Service immediately in case of an emergency road accident.
