Everyone in Sri Lanka have to be cautious when driving on Southern Highway where there are only two lanes. The drivers need to be educated properly how to operate their vehicles in highways and road safety of vehicles.

Our deepest sympathies to the family members of Arosha Cooray!.
and to thilak ,yr.entry No.4 sounds bit unkind and ungenerous and in no way helps the grieved family to overcome their loss of a family member.Perhaps you yourself realised yr.folly and followed it with your entries Nos.5 & 6 in quick succession to soften its impact on the bereaved family.
The Dead tell no tales hence they are unable to defend themselves.Poor Gentleman over trusted his machine or was unable to read the road conditions.
May he attain Nibbana!

After reading this after lapse 3 years i feel sorry for Thilak for his comments. Your statement does not tally with engineering aspects. I feel sorry for your poor mentality; Kindly go for mental instructions as soon as possible.
