This is my first blog of the year, and the third about the traffic confusion in this "dharmam migu chennai." With over thousands of vehicles bought every month, the roads are just getting congested and you can not blame the civic authorities for that. My observation is that people who have started driving a two-wheeler within the last decade are the ones who cause too much of nuisance.
Most of them do not spend just Rs 200 for a rear-view mirror though they "buy" a trendy bike for almost half-a-lakh of rupees! According to this generation of drivers it (the mirror) SPOILS the look of their bike!
Overtaking on the left is the order of the day! A few days back I was driving on Cathedral road and there were no vehicles moving towards Gemini flyover. A motocyclist drove pretty fast and overtook me on the left, leaving me just shiver for a few seconds. This is a very common sight. Many people driving motor cars are seen these days trying to overtake on the left.
Every inch of the main roads is occupied by the road users these days! In addition to the existing chaos, people keep honking!
Is there a way to control all these and make people use the roads effectively?
Who REALLY cares?
