Traffic Solutions........



Can the Traffic Authorities do away with all the speed breakers in the city,
and get to those drivers who violate Traffic Rules & Discipline.
Penalty should not be only a monetary fine, but also compulsory  attend a Road Sense Class, which must extend beyond an hour.
Presently these rash delinquents, think they can get away with a monetary fine.
We need to hurt them where it hurts most. That is on their time.
If after attending two class, his behaviour does not improve, then his licence gets revoked.
This re vocal is displayed on a website, so that before fresh issuance, the concerned officer can check if he is a banned driver or not. This act will compel all drivers to be responsible citizens.
We who travel by the public transport today, have to bear the violent motions caused by these speed bumps, as these are Weapons of Mass Discomfort.

Fines for crossing the zebra line when the signal turns Red should be Rs 1000/- per act. 
For Driving across and crossing the Red signal should be Rs 10,000/- per act, for Dangerous/Drunken driving should be Rs 25,000/- per act with forfeit of Licence for 12 months. 
This will ensure our rides in public transport is more comfortable, 
rather than a back breaker because of these rash drivers.

All Vehicles should have their Owners Mobile Numbers registered with the R.T.O.
Policemen should cease to Tow Vehicles. Instead they should send an SMS to the RTO Control Room. The Control Room in turn sends an SMS to the Vehicle Owner asking him to clear the vehicle immediately. The clock starts. The minute the Vehicle Owner or its driver approaches to clear the vehicle he meets the Policeman. The Policemen asks the Vehicle Owner or Driver to SMS the Control Room, and in turn gets the Fine amount displayed on his Mobile. He either pays the amount and collects receipt, or has it debited to his account, which gets paid ASAP.
The Policeman informs the RTO the time when the Vehicle has cleared the spot.
This will avoid all corruption, and ensure Road Discipline.
Currently we have many vehicles that park haphazard because of the presence of  Malls and Convenience Stores. If this way to fine the vehicles is adopted, soon we will have a smooth travel along all City Roads.
