Rajiv Rahadari passes through about 96 kilometers in Siddipet district from Vantimamidi in Mulugu mandal to Devakkapally in Bejjanki mandal. Many vehicles on this road travel at 100 kmph and some even touch 130 kmph though the speed limit is 80 kmph. To exacerbate, the stretch has more than 60 curves from Shameerpet to Siddipet alone which is also one of the main reasons for accidents.
