Driving in neutral or continuously applying only foot brakes runs the risk of overheating the brake system and turning off brake fade. ​Lack of Crash Barriers: Most of the mountain side roads do not have earth embankments or guard rails on the steep sides. In such places, drivers should take care to drive in a safe neutral line, not close to the edge of the road, and exercise utmost care when yielding to oncoming vehicles. Hillside houses and road protection: Construction of earth embankments or retaining concrete covers is important for the protection of houses located below the road. Call 1990 Suvasarya Ambulance Service for immediate hospitalization of the injured in case of an emergency road accident.
