Such incidents are reported daily, and we see bike passengers going without precaution or caution. This incident exemplifies why a safety guard is essential on a bike. In 2028, the Supreme Court made it mandatory for two-wheelers to have safety guards and hand grips for rear passengers. However, many vehicles without safety guards can be seen plying on the road.
