Traffic Jams in India - Everyday Chaos!!

Tweet

In India traffic jams is the most common scene one witnesses everyday in different states and cities. In Mumbai, where I stay, it's worst thing. Everyday billions of people in India have to face them. Traffic jams occurs due to many reasons:- 1. Poor road infrastructure 2. No traffic rules followed by most people 3. Entry of heavy vehicles into the city 4. People crossing roads carelessly 5. Festivals or functions or even sports being played on one side of road. Due to traffic jams which last for long hours at times, it results in constant honking done by many people which gives rise to noise pollution. Traffic jams causes air and noise pollution which causes much harm to people in everyday lives. Air pollution because majority of people do not turn off their vehicles in traffic for some time or on signal for the constant hurry to go somewhere. Government takes many measures in order to maintain traffic laws and regulations, but unless it's citizens don't consciously practice traffic rules, nothing will improve. What are your views about it?? Do you face heavy traffic everyday?? How you deal with it??
