How to cope with ever rising traffic congestion in india
Most of the cities in India are facing Road Traffic Problems. Daily we are stuck in traffic jams. The main reason for this is population, urbanization incredible increase in the number of two and four wheelers. In spite of Govt’s efforts to address this problem by enhancing the public transport system, widening the roads, constructing flyovers, the progress is not satisfactory. We have to put up with all sorts of inconveniences due to traffic jams or adopt certain alternatives to make life easier.
Steps
One should use small car or two wheeler
Prefer public transport system such as Metro rail, Electric Train and Non stop Air conditioned buses.
one has to observe and note the timings of traffic jams and start early to go to workplace or to drop school children.
As far as possible, it is better to send the children to school by school bus
Check, before you leave, in local news papers as to whether any traffic restrictions or diversions are imposed by the police
It is always better to start early, even by one hour, as your employers expect you to be on time.
Start a little late from the work place to avoid being stuck in jams. This time can be spent in sports or discussions etc at work place.
Choose Sundays and Holidays for shopping as traffic will be thin and the markets and Malls are also kept open.
Tips
- Usage of helmets while on two wheelers is in your own safety interest.
- Maintain extra fuel/gas in your vehicles as consumption will be more during idle running during traffic jams and diversions.
- Your vehicle must be tuned properly to slow running
- Avoid busy roads
- Listen to music or read a book or magazine to avoid irritation during jams.
Caution
- Look for no parking zones before parking.
- Avoid double parking as this adds to congestion and inconvenience to others.
- Cell phone conversations are strictly taboo, while driving.
- Beware of traffic cops. Now a days they are equipped with digital cameras and you are caught unawares, without seat belt, mobile conversation and wrong parking and, challaned with proof.
