Save life on Goan roads

With the increase in accidents on Goa’s roads and the loss of life, the safe working engine speed of all motor vehicles should be limited to 60 km/h.

The automobile engineering industry should understand that these vehicles are not products of motor sports or Formula 1. Speed governors should be installed to enforce a safe speed limit. We cannot put our lives at risk. I hope that one day these motor vehicle speed regulations will be put into action very soon, as there are loved ones waiting for us at home.
