Traffic violations 

With Bengaluru being one of the most congested cities in the world, traffic woes have become a big headache. Some of the most common violations include riding on pavements, helmetless driving, wrong-lane driving, jumping signals, overspeeding among others. In one such case, an ambulance driver drove his vehicle for 400 metres even as a man got stuck on the vehicle’s bonnet in Bengaluru. He was stopped by an alert public.    

The traffic police do conduct awareness programmes regularly, but the violations only seem to be increasing. At the same time, it is imperative for the public to follow these rules voluntarily to ensure the safety of others.
