Road safety


Day in and day out, we are hearing, seeing and reading about accidents. Most of the time, it looks like these accidents could have been avoided, if it hadn't been for the buses, lorries, cars having faulty brakes, drivers having plenty of summons, motorcyclists without licences, speeding at breakneck speed, etc, etc. Lives are lost and people maimed.

I know the authorities are trying their best. Just go to the paying counters of the traffic police and you can see the long queues. It shows that the enforcers are doing their job.

Another cause of the accidents are the cyclists. One can see the cyclists, during nights, cycling in the dark, without any lights from their bicycles, endangering vehicles approaching them. The drivers can see them only at the last minute and try to detour accordingly, thus, endangering vehicles coming immediately at the front or back. I remember many years back, all the bicycles were strictly enforced to have front and back lights. I hope this enforcement is brought back again.

And also the checking and correcting of the other causes mentioned above, and the implementing of the enforcements should be more strict and persistent.
