Bangalore's Terrific Traffic

Yet another busy day started. Kids, students, teachers, teckies are all in rush to reach their destinations. Someone is rushing to get the Bus, some are busy in getting into the vehicles. but, one thing is common in this, all are in Hurry to just get into their destinations. No matter what, they must reach their destinations.

Its been couple of years i have been in this BUSY Bangalore. But in olden days when i was a kid of 12 or 13 it was not like that, all the roads of Bangalore is filled cool air, and finger countable traffic, and pace of the life was very slow.. But now , if you just imagine the TIME of 8:30 - 10AM in the morning its HORRIBLE. Every signal will gets piled up easily. No matter what Traffic police do (turn on and off of signals). Its hard them to get control over it.

Here are the Some of the Points i can make out
  1. Less driving sense: Pepole will never follow the rules. Peoples (especially 2 wheelers / autos) just cross the lane and always move in to the Incoming lanes to get first into the Signal creating a BOTTLE NECK. By this the traffic behind them gets a lesser move. since most of the SIGNAL time is consumed by the RULE BREAKERS.
  2. Single person driving n 4 wheeler: This is most disgusting.. These banks are giving such a schemes that Its easy for the people to get trapped in SIMPLE EMI scheme. I guess all most 85% of the TECKIE Pm/PL will have a 4 Wheeler. The bad thing is only one person is always riding it. The result is, a car 5-6 Mts long and 2 Mts wide consumes 6 two wheeler space. so effectively consuming 12 person space. Thats BAD. Even worse is They talk on mobile while Driving.
  3. Bad Roads: Roads really need to get improve a lot
  4. Daily registration of Vehicles: Govt need to put some constraint on registering the number of vehicles on monthly Basis. Ex:3000 Vehicles. But the true fact is Bangalore gets 800 -1000 vehicles registered daily.
  5. Bad Parking Facility: Poeple will park their vehicles where ever they want. And also in some areas Govt must make some Parking lot, at reasonable price.
Hence bangaloreans
  • Follow traffic rules
  • Carry proper Documents
  • Maintain low speed.
  • Take the cut roads, avoid main roads.
  • Make a nice parking.
Have a Safe ride.....
