Re: Rules Enforcement

Post: Two most important things are: 1. Education of public with regard to rules. 2. Enforce the rules strictly. I see problem in both these fronts. Also, there is lack of sensitivity with our citizens. Many times, I have seen auto rikshaw drivers going in the middle of busy roads, very slowly and causing problems for those who are coming from behind. In the same way, if two buses are stopped one behind the other and suppose the 2nd bus wants to start first. The driver of 2nd bus, doesn't care for who is coming from behind and what happens to them. He just turns and blocks the whole road. Imagine when 4-5 buses do this at the same times! So, I feel that, we need to be sensitive about causing inconvenience to others. Along with that, we need to know the rules properly. Thirdly, fines should be such that, I don't dare to commit mistakes. In USA, you can see that everybody (even those who have gone from here) follows the rules properly. The reason is, fine is hefty. And if the mistake is repeated, he will be produced in the court and will have to explain. If he repeats for the 3rd time, his license will be will be withdrawn and he will have to attend driving classes and clear driving test to get the license back.
