I reside opposite the Dona Paula“Bambolim main road and witness vehicles speeding daily, especially those coming from Manipal Hospital.
While emergency vehicles deserve priority, most other drivers misuse this route, driving recklessly without regard for safety. Such speeding endangers pedestrians and residents living nearby.
Authorities must take urgent action”either by widening the road to handle the traffic or by relocating the hospital to a safer, more accessible area. Strict enforcement of traffic rules is also essential.
In earlier days, repeated offenders faced licence suspension or cancellation; such measures must be revived. Only then can order and safety be restored on this busy stretch.
