Chaos..Chaos...Chaos...

Oh God....it's so chaotic...ugly and horrible!
It is driving me crazy....
I hate it but I can't help it.
I have to keep going....I mean...driving...!
Yes, I am talking about "driving"....and my big question is... WHY?
Why don't people follow a lane while driving?
Why do taxi drivers drive as though there are no other cars running on the road?
Why do bike-riders ride in such awfully rash manner?
Why do pedestrians walk on almost the middle of the road?
Why do taxis suddenly speed slow just to spot a customer?
Why do pedestrians ignore the desperate honking?
Why do people just appear in the middle of the busy traffic road from nowhere bringing the car to a sudden n frightful stop?
Why? why? why?
Why do drivers talk on cell phone while driving?
Why don't the taxis have the lights on in the night?
Why do bikers go straight ahead without looking even once when actually their signal has turned red?

Why are we so selfish and in the bargain, so careless about the safety of our own life?
What is the hurry?
Where have we to reach so fast, breaking signals, overtaking from the wrong side and ignoring the rules of safe driving?

How I wish we all followed the simple social protocols!
Can't we be more civil in our own country and our own city?
Can't we follow simple rules and live peacefully?

Uff...it is exasperating....but it will continue to be so...I guess..as long as Indians continue to break rules and laws in our own country!

I ask you all earnestly, please tell me, is it really difficult to have disciplined traffic on road?

Can we be more positive and responsible citizens?
Yes. We CAN!
Come on then, LET US BEGIN TODAY...the journey to a responsibly pleasurable living with a disciplined and safe driving!

  1. Why.. you ask... I think its mainly because people are not afraid of the LAW!! they are almost certain that even if 'mama' stops them at signal.. they can pay him 50Rs and not get into any trouble! Its just time for stricter rules! :)

  2. Its more about getting used to. May it be good or bad. Instead of giving a thought on what is more correct.
