The Chennai Traffic!!!

the word Traffic sends shivers to everyone. Especially those returning from office in the evening after a tiresome day at office...

I am a regular traveller by bus who off-late changed over to train .. why Traffic.. where.. its everywhere tambaram pallavaram airport , kathipara ( the nemesis), Guindy.. Fine kathipara and airport have a flyover thats getting built,i can understand the reason for the jam.. but why in other places..

on peering from my bus window i did some observation.Its not the vehicles that cause the jams and the slow movement of traffic, but its the pedestrians and the people who are not on any vehicles who create the problem. Especially those morons ( i will term them so ) who wait for the bus at bus stops. instead of standing in the bus stop they stand on the roads. If afterall you want to stand on the road , why do you need a place alled a bus stop with a shade. These ' utterly socially irresponsible creatures' stand on the road occupying the space almost equal to the space of 1.5 buses .. ok worst case at least 1 bus. now that you have occupied 1 lane of the available 3 lanes at a crucial lunction, where will the busy traffic go. they just have 2 lanes to cruise thro and it ends up with the traffic getting jammed. its not only at guindy or tambaram. its all over ..

other set of non sense creatues .. its really horrible when you get stuck in traffic early in the morning. reason... again the same .. we people dont want to follow certain rules... they have a subway built for them but they still want to cross jamming the traffic.. its irritating when these lazy idiots dont want to walk 100 mts to take the Subway.

people dont seem to understand the problem and correct themselves or even make an effort to solve the problem. But in turn day by day they worsen the problem. I happened to ask a couple of people standing on the road . bang i got the answer ' Ungalukku enna teriyum, Summa velaiya pathuttu ponga thaambi' . its sick that these people dont want to change.

when will our citizens on chennai change. I try to follow these small things and advice people in my work place too... .. its a first step .. can we as responsible citizens help this cause.. will any one understand???

i hope so they do..
