“Costly trial ends in traffic chaos” (May 19, 2015)

This is another example of how muzzy these people are. Before identifying the root causes of the problem and thereafter taking comprehensive plans of action, they always prefer to resort to instant makeshift measures, creating further pandemonium (but making a fortune for the authority out of such a melee). Disgusting!

Before introducing large scale changes like that, the government should have done some pilot projects in various parts of the town to see how well this works. Then you go for a bigger area 
and so forth.

May be we are not ready for this. The authorities should increase the number of traffic police at least by three times. They should prevent any kind of vehicle parking at road sides, clear footpaths, construct more foot bridges, finish the construction works faster; 60% traffic problem will be solved.

The idea was good but the system of implementation was wrong because the drivers are still not respectful about the traffic lights. We have to promote such features and get the drivers used to it and then it might work. It should not be implemented in the whole city at the same time; it should be segmented and practiced at different places. It's a long term process.

The traffic control department should have some clear concepts about it first. They sometimes behave like they themselves do not know the rules. The VIP culture of breaking traffic rules should 
be strictly dealt with.
