How sad? We really pity the guys but their careless and reckless riding has become the cause to the end of life. They move recklessly. | |

Firstly they haven’t worn the helmets. We have to follow the traffic rules for our safety. See them lying dead dying a dog’s death. May your eternal soul rest in peace. | |
