The Hindu
Two-wheeler rider was killed in 2019 after he hit a bull on the road at night
A large number of stray cattle that roam the roads and even sleep on busy strecthes in the nights have made the roads unsafe for vehicle users, especially two-wheeler riders, women, children and the elderly in Tirunelveli city.
Almost all roads traversing Tirunelveli, including the arterial Madurai–Kanniyakumari four-lane national highway, are witnessing accidents caused by stray cattle in the nights. Since the soil is wet after the recent rain, the cattle, which have been abandoned by their owners, occupy the dry roads to rest or sleep.
