As many as 28,000 people have lost their lives on Kerala roads in the last 10 years, with the State registering the highest accident rate in the country. And it seems the Govt ( yes we have one here ,too) is proud to be in the toppers list... why so much of accidents..? Because Gods own country has the worst roads, probably in this whole world... Shame less politicians and officials have eaten up the coffers and inspite of harsh remarks from courts and rulings, have left the people to the mercy of fate or God, with potholes and dangerous collection of waste and garbage which smell like hell in the cities, mainly the city of Kochi where I live..( its called as the queen of arabian sea..another Malayali joke...!!!.) 
Mayor Mercy Williams blamed the bad condition of roads on the "unexpected" rain and the Assembly elections. She admitted that the Corporation could do little despite frequent requests from the police and different organisations.
How should one describe this piece of magnificient shit???
Celebrated stupidity?
rains ? unexpected? in Kerala??...
aint our politicians funy??? I dont know whether she is inherently idiotic or with this issue she is taking special efforts to be so??
Drivers of bigger vehicles lose control over while negotiating the potholes often resulting in fatal accidents. In most cases, motorists are unable to gauge the depth of the water-filled holes. Moreover the potholes also slow down traffic on the already-congested roads and make life a hell here.. well it already is... Kerala and thanks to its Marxist lineage and the Congress greed ,(we still have no roads which in comparsion with our neighbouring states can be called as roads, our public transport is dangerously outdated and disgusting, our bus stations stink of urine and tobacco,bridges and highways exist only in our tv channels ,where the beared marxist and the 'khadi'ed congress man fight it out and finally decide that bridges, highways and flyovers ruin culture and we would have NONE of it....)
Potholes on roads have been breaking the leaf springs and axles of automobiles and causing flat tyres. They also increase wear-and-tear and fuel loss, affecting daily income and routine of many. The Government, which collects(shame on you!!) crores of rupees from vehicle owners as road tax, has not been doing much to maintain roads in motorable condition and if at all something is done ,they all wait till the end of May to start works.... come rains ...dept after dept (not even together) start the digging and damaging works....
Every one knows why and how , but no one it seems , not even the courts can do anything.. Today morning I saw a district judge's car with a flat tyre, in a busy city cross.
What more can I do, than to pray till I get back home safe without much of financial bruises..... After all they have made it compulsory for two wheeler riders to wear Helmets and for four wheelers to have seat belts fastened... Law abiding citizens that we are and we do it.. after all law is for the ruled and not for the ruler....and any ways this month I have already got two flat tyres.....
