NO-PARKING zone violations

Arun - 29-SEP-2010

Too many violations of the No-parking zone can be seen all over the City, and 95 times out of 100, it will be private cars that violate this rule.  Jayanagar, probably tops this list.  Few observations -

Parking enforcement & restraining traffic growth

Naveen - 26-SEP-2010

Further to the meeting with Mr Praveen Sood, AdCP-Traffic, a project will be necessary to identify a workable approach to re-introduce parking regulations in the city.

 A small note prior to reading: I am new to Praja and have not read threads related to this subject. Also this posting is done with the help of someone as I am not good in computers and internet. I came to know about meeting with Praveen Sood. Hence my inputs are here for the meeting. All the best !

Motorcycles kill more than BMTC buses?

silkboard - 19-SEP-2010

An interesting stat in the data sets from Traffic police - despite all the negative talk about BMTC drivers (tabloids love it), motor cycles accidents result in more deaths on city roads than BMTC buses. Further, tractors cause more deaths on city roads than taxis and maxi cabs combined. So much for the yellow plate trash talk :)

Tech savvy policing

murali772 - 8-SEP-2010

A perennial complaint across cities about auto rickshaws is addressable through this proposed SMS facility. This will be more effective than a few manned auto help centres near bus and train stations since its reach will cover the entire city.
