This is so concerning! First the boat tragedy in East Champaran and now this at the airport. Bihar really needs to improve safety measures across all modes of transport. My heart goes out to the families who lost loved ones in the boat accident 💔

Driver saying "someone closed my eyes" sounds like he might have had a medical emergency. At 10-20 kmph, such incidents shouldn't happen unless there's an underlying issue. Hope he gets medical checkup done.

The contrast between these two incidents is striking - one with no casualties and another with three lives lost. While the airport incident is bizarre, the boat tragedy is truly heartbreaking. Proper safety protocols could prevent such accidents.

As someone who travels through Patna airport frequently, I've noticed the traffic chaos near terminals. This incident was waiting to happen. Authorities need to take immediate action before something more serious occurs.

While the CM's condolences for the boat tragedy are appreciated, I wish there was more proactive governance to prevent such incidents. Both these accidents highlight systemic safety issues that need addressing.
