Calling for laws preventing accidents
Hon. Minister for Roads and Highway has expressed responsibility for the recent road accidents. Stiff financial penalties should be enforced on the vehicle owners liable for these incidents. This will prevent further violation of traffic rules and urge owners to take responsibility for their vehicles' actions.
The fines should vary based on the registered capacity of the vehicle. Offending buses should be fined for TK 5000 multiplied by the registered capacity, for instance. This amount should be paid, with official receipt, to victims within ten days of the accident. The police should charge additional TK 2500 if payment is not made in time.
