I was really amazed at seeing "Red Means Stop" written on one of the signals in bangalore and started laughing that do this need to be taught to people. But lately it seems it is required. I guess many bangaloreans dont know the meaning of red in traffic signals or else they have become color blind.
Recently, I have seen this trend too many times in bangalore, people breaking the traffic signal rules and speeding across a Red Signal. With a woofing traffic on the roads, this habit is a very fatal one, not just for them but for everyone else who are driving on these roads. I have myself escaped quiet a few accidents because of others breaking the signal. And the worst part is, they dont even accept their mistakes. Say them something and they scoff at you. God, what kind of educated people are these?
I guess we need to spread this message around and have more stricter system to avoid this. Atleast teach people that "Red means stop".

Rather I felt Bangie is better compared to Punes indisciplined traffic, There nobody cares.
ReplyDeleteIt depends a lot on the on-duty-policement to control all this, but who does his duty properly?
Now, I m not saying that I m supporting these rule-breakers, but once someone breaks, the rest follow.
Ask any of my frend, I m the strict follower of rules [8)] !!
ohh.. and yeah..
ReplyDeleteYellow means slow down to stop and not race ahead to beat the signal !!
yeah...once one brks...everyone else thinks tht they can also do the same..
ReplyDeleteeven m a strict follower...even if ppl behind keep honking i will not start till it turns green...
and yeah i slow down at yellow rather than speed.. :-)
Normally, if u stop, all d behind will also stop !!
ReplyDeleteThough some ^*%(^* keep pressing horns, doesn't matter... give them a shit !!
and 99.99% ppl driving vehicles are literate and well educated. Wht a shame !!
haan...educated hone ke baad bhi woh signal todte hain..
ReplyDeletemujhe ye nahin samajh aata ki kuch seconds se kya farak pad jaayega unhe...
you r right...
ReplyDeletebut it has to be taken with a different way...if u try to preach or scold...nobody listens...tell me one instance when ppl have heard u screaming at them...none...
m still confused at the way how to teach ppl to respect the traffic rules...
No..
ReplyDeleteU just follow the rules.. and ppl behind u will surely stop too !!
Its just tht, if u race to beat the signal, at least 2-3 vehicles behind u will also follow u.
So, theres no need of preaching and screaming... just follow rules for urself and others will also follow too !! ))
i gs they were being sarcastic wen they said "red means stop"
ReplyDeleteas kiran said they may be sarcastic but still we can see some dumb ppl rt there who doesn't follow even they knew the rules!!!
ReplyDeleteis it just my feeling or truth that most accidents occur 'coz we move fastly before the red signal appears and also even before the green appears!
isi liye kahta hoon, US aa jao :-p
ReplyDelete@Bro'
ReplyDeleteAlmost 85% of the accidents or 'coz of drivers fault.
The problem is with the attitude not the country or the facilities.
@samyak
ReplyDeleteU just follow the rules.. and ppl behind u will surely stop too !!
wat abt the ppl ahead??
@alch
ofc they were sarcastic...but the junta is so besharam that it doesnt matter to them..
@chandu
u r right...most of the accidents can be avoided by properly following rules...but...
@raja
as chandu said...its the attitude...and we need to change tht..not the country...
wat abt the ppl ahead??
ReplyDeleteSee, U can't control everybody and all. (as long as u not a Hitler) !
So, at least u making follow rules that are behind u.
Its a topic of a big discussion and debate... so.. we'll take it offline sometime later !! [:)]
