Strictly implement the traffic rules by Awareness and Fines


Venkat Pakkela

The drivers on roads due to lack of awareness of traffic rules, carelessness cause problems like traffic jams and accidents. Some police personnel are themselves found to be violating traffic rules. The carelessness of drivers is also causing jump of traffic signals, not giving way to other drivers or pedestrians etc. It’s found now a days that people are so inhumane that they don’t give way to an Ambulance .

The drivers of 2-wheelers, autos, private taxis, lorries and govt vehicles driving in almost every Indian city and on highways are extreme danger for people on the roads. The traffic police never succeeded to create fear in the minds of  drivers who violate the traffic rules. This is due to the reason the fines are imposed only once in a blue moon. Most of the 2 wheel drivers rarely use helmets which is very essential for safety.

The solution to minimize the traffic problems lies in the following :

1. Issue  a driving license only after passing the driving test (i.e. no corruption)

2. Conduct Road Safety Awareness programs frequently.

3. Impose fines daily on the traffic violators.

4. Installting the speed cameras on the roads to catch traffic violators.

5. Introduce the black point system which leads to confiscation of driving license to combat bad driving, like in U.S.A. and some other countries.

Road safety is a safety measure to reduce the risk of road accidents and road side injury because of the mistakes of people while driving on the road. We cannot count the daily road side accidents and death of people because of the driving mistakes and lack of road traffic rules followers. Every person going on the road has risk of injury or death. Such as pedestrians, motorists, cyclists, passengers, etc.

The various reasons are unawareness about the traffic rules and road regulations. Some people tend to be careless and ignore the road rules intentionally to travel faster. Moreover, old roads and poor quality roads can pose a threat to the traffic running over them. Road congestion and traffic jams can lead to mishaps too. There have been cases of drunken driving and consequent accidents. Such carelessness and immature attitude on roads can cost lives.
Sohail Khan , India

Road accidents are mishaps that can occur on the roads involving vehicles or pedestrians owing to various factors. Every day, we come across news about such accidents that claim lives and cause casualties. It causes loss of lives and also social and individual property. It damages roads and often poses a problem for many people who commute through the same route daily.

The problem points to both the condition of our roads and of our drivers. All the drivers out there are certainly not experts. Driving while in a bad mood or when one is under stress or is suffering from illness is sure to lessen one’s concentration. People should opt for public transport in such cases. Breaking the rules seems to be the hobby of the present generation of drivers.

In cases where the driver of the larger vehicle is not ready to plead guilty he has to prove that it was not because of his fault that the accident occurred. Since it is almost impossible to bring in such proof, the driver of the larger vehicle pleads guilty, pays a small fine and goes free. The injury to persons or damage to property are taken care of by insurance companies. This has become an almost established practice in our country.

According to the statistics, it is found that there are most of the road accidents cases in which children are involved, so they are at high risk than other age group people. They need road safety knowledge and education from their early ages. It should be started from their home and schools by adding this subject to their syllabus. Some points are mentioned below proving the fact that why road safety is so important for kids and children:

Road safety is must to be paid proper attention by each and every person on the earth, whether using vehicles or not. Children and students are the most vulnerable group towards the road accidents, minor or major injuries and even death because of the lack of adult supervision. There should not be late in making children well aware about the road safety rules and measures in their early ages. It should be the duty of parents and teachers to teach them properly under their nice supervision.

especially physical punishment, children learn how the powerful make rules and the weaker must go along with it, or else. They might learn to avoid being honest about mistakes or to divert the blame on to others (“he did it, not me,” “it’s not my fault”). Because young children do not choose to mis-behave, they can feel like failures if punished over and over.

We have to achieve the target of collecting Rs 18 lakh every month. Though we always fall short, we manage to collect nearly Rs 12 lakh every month. Since the maximum amount of challan—Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000 — is imposed upon the trucks, we are more focused on heavy vehicles. A fine of Rs 1,000 is imposed for per tonne overloading and usually trucks are found overloaded by almost 10 tonnes. So, we impose a penalty of at least Rs 15,000 per truck for overloading and other violations.

Road infrastructure-The automobile population in India has grown up to 170 times in the past 50 years but the country’s road has grown only about 9 times. So there is a dire need to improve the quality of the roads in India. Flyovers, grade separators, service roads, sign boards, pavements, monitored crossings near schools and other safety features have to be the primary focus while designing new road infrastructure.

Having travelled to and lived in several countries, what I find most disturbing in our traffic rules and enforcement is the total absence of clearly defined rules and their enforcement.

For example, there are always “right of way” rules clearly defined in all countries and whenever an accident happens, the cul

there has been an immense increase in the traffic on the roads over a period of time. While on the one hand it has made things convenient for us but on the other hand it also increases our concerns of road safety.

Strict enforcement of traffic rules is needed. How often do we see people riding with mobile phones glued to their ears? Or vehicles parked right under no parking boards? What about the reckless overtaking by private buses which race against each other? Schoolchildren should be alerted on the dangers of playing on the road and instructed to move only along footpaths.

The problem points to both the condition of our roads and of our drivers. All the drivers out there are certainly not experts. Driving while in a bad mood or when one is under stress or is suffering from illness is sure to lessen one’s concentration. People should opt for public transport in such cases. Breaking the rules seems to be the hobby of the present generation of drivers.

Why not fix age 30 for driving licence for heavy vehicles and prescribe an age limit 65 for stopping all driving.

It is not like that as petty traffic violations, amounting to a fine of Rs 200 to Rs 1,000 are checked by the traffic police. The transport department issues heavy challans, ranging between Rs 2,000-Rs 20,000 or more. We kill two birds with one stone by collecting money and teaching how not to drive rashly.

We have to achieve the target of collecting Rs 18 lakh every month. Though we always fall short, we manage to collect nearly Rs 12 lakh every month. Since the maximum amount of challan—Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000 — is imposed upon the trucks, we are more focused on heavy vehicles. A fine of Rs 1,000 is imposed for per tonne overloading and usually trucks are found overloaded by almost 10 tonnes. So, we impose a penalty of at least Rs 15,000 per truck for overloading and other violations.

The biggest issue I see is with the RTOs process of issuing driving licences. It has become too easy to obtain a licence. If the rules of issuing driving licence were strictly followed, half of the drivers on the roads would have never got licences.

Well, we all know how easy it is to get a driving license in India. Also punishment for errant drivers is light. A bribe is all that needs to be given and the rash drivers are free to go. Indians are known for their high degree of patience, but do we have to be patient where rash driving is concerned? No. Some drastic action needs to be taken.

Incidentally, India holds the dubious distinction of registering the highest number of road accidents in the world. According to the experts at the National Transportation Planning and Research Centre (NTPRC) the number of road accidents in India is three times higher than that prevailing in developed countries. The number of accidents for 1000 vehicles in India is as high as 35 while the figure ranges from 4 to 10 in developed countries.

Teach traffic rules, road discipline and ethics in our schools. How to behave in public is not at all taught anywhere and the young generation is unaware of it. Giving proper training in discipline and ethics to all and enforcing the rules strictly are the only way to reduce accidents.
