Midday Brief, Monday, November 19, 2018

In this photo: a man, carrying a child, squeezes through a gap in the road divider, even though a footbridge can be seen nearby. The photo was taken on the Dhaka-Chattogram highway in the capital’s Shanir Akhra area yesterday. As cars drive at higher speeds on highways, the man’s action poses a greater risk to his life and the lives f those around him.
