Anything happens on the highway, Bike is the only reason

ট্রাক!ট্রাক!ট্রাক!
শুয়োর মুখো ট্রাক আসবে
দুয়োর বেধে রাখ।
কেন বাধবো দোর জানালা
তুলবো কেন খিল?
আসাদ গেছে মিছিল নিয়ে
ফিরবে সে মিছিল।
ট্রাক!ট্রাক!ট্রাক!
ট্রাকের মুখে আগুন দিতে
মতিয়ুরকে ডাক।
কোথায় পাব মতিয়ুরকে
ঘুমিয়ে আছে সে!
তোরাই তবে সোনামানিক
আগুন জ্বেলে দে।


These lines were written by poet Al Mahmud as the truck accidents were enhanced in a large number.

In the year of 2018, 51 people were dead on a plane crash in the capital of Nepal and this Airport is one of the most terrible Airports in the world. But there was no action taken against the Airport or the Airlines.

Death is nearly regular on the launches and boats but there is no question on the matter of closing these from river root.

We all know about the chaos held few months ago about the death of student on the road by bush but no one claim to ban bushes from the road rather every educated people claim to accurate implementation of law.

This year 2022, in vacation of Eid, so many people got their destination through motorcycle which is abnormal in number. This is why there are some accident occurred and accident number is also abnormal. We all know that every year in the time of Eid, road accident become a part of the road for many specific reasons, I am not going to explain all accidents but I am only to mention that accident might happen if there are more traffic on the road than usual specially in the occasion of Eid.

Now let’s try to find out why people choosing motorcycle to go home even after knowing, it’s not safe?

Everyone in the world prefer breaking bones more than dying. Knowing that bikes are not safe, people take bike to the streets with their wives and children by risking of their lives. One of the reasons for this is not getting bus / train / launch tickets, their arbitrariness and the chaotic situation on the roads and the chaotic life. To avoid all these things, bikers risk their lives but return home on Eid by bike.

It is true that accidents are also caused by unruly, unskilled bikers on the roads, the amount is limited and proper enforcement of the law is not enough to control it. Because of this, the idea of ​​stopping bikes on the highway is very strange.

According to the newspaper, the business of the bus owners has been much less than their idea due to the bikers on the last Eid-ul-Fitr. It is not uncommon for bikers to be banned in order to benefit certain groups.

To keep highways and express highways safe-
- Whether policy is made for low cc bikes or separate lanes
- Import / manufacture high cc bikes with more safety features
- Get a special driving license or at least a few years of expertise to get a high CC bike.

An accident on the road, illegal work somewhere or whatever, the responsibility is on the bikers. Recently, two bikers were killed in the first accident on the Padma Bridge. Bikes were banned on the Padma Bridge. Later it was found out that they were not guilty in the accident. Even after this incident, deaths are going on in bus/truck accidents but there is no sound against them. For bikers, this line of Rabindranath Tagore's story seems to be applicable:


“যা-কিছু হারায়, গিন্নি বলেন, “কেষ্ট বেটাই চোর।“
