Daredevil ST !!






ST negotiates narrow bridges, killer hairpin-bends and steep slopes on Devgad - Kunakeshwar road in Sindhudurg district.

I clicked these pictures of the deftly-moving ST bus (Buddhwadi - Devgad) just as my Maruti 800 gave up and spluttered to a halt on the agonising slope..!!

This is perhaps among the most difficult stretches ST deals with every day. The road is tricky and is simply not meant for huge, bulky ST buses. Yet, they continue to ferry passengers without complaint, day in- day out.

Can you see the lush, dense mango orchards that overhang on to the road from either side?
