These types of gimmicks are not going to solve our transportation problem.Here the traffic in the city is not at all organised.Anybody can park his vehicle anywhere.Any vehicles take Uturn without any warinings.Transport buses park in the middle to load passengers.Passengers stand in the middle to board buses rather waiting at the sheds.Autorichshaws are a real menace to anyone travelling through the city roads.Two wheelers ply through wrong sides creating havoc and fear.It is high time we had developed a road culture that respects every road user.
