Coimbatore:Dhabas on the highways in western Tamil Nadu do not just serve rotis, they also serve a dangerous recipe for highway tragedies. The eateries, or dhabas, dotting the highways from Salem to Coimbatore run illegal liquor bars, leading to increasing accidents on the highways.
DC captured vivid images of customers, especially truck drivers, drinking alcohol at dhabas on the highways and hitting the roads in a drunken state.
