Believe me or not, every morning for that complete week there is a fresh case of fatal accidents.

I was really shocked, how come the accidents happen in that excellent road separated by a median. The cops says drivers are topping up their speed once they reach that stretch & Tindivanam-Tamabaram segment is where the majority of accidents occur during nights. The highway department and patrol police are equipped to clear the vehicles involved in accident in no time & the trace of the accident itself will not be there.

Just look at the medians between Tindivanam-Tambaram, you can notice the scars in the medians indicating that some vehicle has hit it.
