Overloaded vehicles carrying hazardous materials are recklessly driving on the Pratapnagar-Soma Talav road, raising serious safety concerns. Residents are demanding immediate and strict action from authorities to curb this dangerous traffic and prevent potential accidents.
The Pratapnagar-Soma Talav road experiences heavy traffic due to the presence of numerous factories. Vehicles frequently transport large quantities of materials such as iron plates, long angles, rods, pipes, and scrap from these factories.
Often, the cargo on these vehicles hangs precariously, posing a significant risk to other road users. Pickup trucks and tempos are frequently seen carrying heavy and lengthy materials in a careless manner, further exacerbating the danger.
The presence of a school along this route makes the situation even more sensitive. Over-dimensioned vehicles are often observed ascending the Pratapnagar bridge, causing anxiety and increasing the risk of accidents for vehicles following behind.
Despite the presence of traffic police on this road, vehicles violating regulations brazenly pass through, raising questions about the effectiveness of law enforcement.
