Discipline on Road
Discipline on Roads
When we walk or drive on roads we fear and feel extremely insecure, frightened and suspicious of others. At the same time we are overconfident in overtaking, vehemently rushing, honking with contempt. The situation is becoming more and more complicated and it seems it will be difficult to walk on roads forget driving in town. Should we bring back the pleasure of at least walking and separating driving from walking and therefore why not,
1. Unwire or remove the horns from all vehicles except Buses and Lorries to quench the hastiness.
2. Install one horn giving 1000 Hz signal only for SOS.
3. Use of Horns by bases and Lorries only at highways outside municipal limits.
4. Left side overtaking and U tern banned unless road has firm and elevated dividers.
5. Banning hopeless vehicles like three wheeler transport vehicles.
6. Foot paths are useless in towns to walk due to uneven level therefore allocate to hawkers spacing properly.
7. 3’ way from footpath a railing or road divider for pedestrians leaving rest of road for continuous driving and freedom from roadside parking in market area.
8. Leaving space of 10’ after every 50’ place exclusively for parking two wheelers and no car stopping on road even for drop and go.
9. No hawkers or shops in residential area but allowed road side parking during day time.
10. Disallow Vehicle if owner does not have parking place in premises.
11. Small, light and perforated skater’s helmet compulsory for bicycle riders even school children to establish security concerns and discipline. more

Where ever it is possible and necessary all pedestrians are required to walk on the right side of the road to avoid accidents, of course if the vehicles really move on the left. more

While I concur with Shri. Sharad, I opine that the vehicle users and drivers must be told /informed that honking is creating unnecessary fear in our minds. When we drive lets us practice the habit of non-honking. Is removing the horn systems in India possible? I am a bit pessimistic! more

Hari OM Do you feel that such good things will be allowed to happen in this country, more so, in Vijayawada/Hyderabad where the unethical politicians are protecting their sons and hunchmen to exploit the freedom of the common man. Can any body find one culprit punished so far?? To me this is one of the main reasons for the increasing trend of attrocities. I am only able to pray the Supreme Power to give wisdom to these rascals who are misusing the liberty given to the human being. Swami Bhakti Chaitanya more

Mr. Sharad Chitre, Your suggestion are very baseless, childish & not fitting for Indian conditions. Here the law makers are themselves breaking all rules on roads. The corruption are rampant among all. The most people are giving bribes to concerns because they want to relieve himself from most breaking rules. Here nobody cares for others, except money. In India-'' paisa is parmeshwar'', that is the most ideological slogan amongst us. We can't change India, only we born & die like doggy here, nothing we can expect from here. more
