I didn't get your point. Highways are not definitely meant for cattles, and tractors driving in opposite direction. And no Jack and Jill should use highways to dry their crops or take a walk or jog. Highways are connecting two cities for quicker journey. Why do people wants to walk or stroll on highways?
You are confused because you are normally driving in Bangalore and the comparatively risk free Bangalore - Chennai highway. Also you are in US many times where good road manners and discipline are routine and not a rare scene like what we practice here.
You will understand my point after a drive between Belgaum and Tumkur in NH48 (old NH4).
About two wheelers, drive safely on the left hand side of the road. I know all morons share the same lane with motor bikes wich we should not. But I dislike (Note: I didn't say hate) bikers blocking the right most lane on highways. Other than couple of bikes in India the average speed of bikes are not more than 60 (safe speed). Then why do they want to go in the middle of highway?
I have seen (to my knowledge) this bus drivers driving the buses to their limits. But we can't save people who wants to cross the road without watching either side of the road and fall on the bus. In that case, even there are accidents with cars, bikes and what not.
There is nothing to blame about highend buses. It is the way how you operate and the environment are responsible for the accidents.

But those big heavy buses are developing huge momentum and are much more dangerous than small vehicles.
That is why speed limit for high end buses is a must.
Limit speed to 90 or 100 kmph which is apt for our highways.
