Road Safety

With more camera controlled roads, the country is seeing reduced number of road accidents because the cameras are effectively controlling the careless drivers now.

However there is a need to educate and control the other road users as well, like the blind cyclists and pedestrians.

Pedestrians should be disciplined to cross from certain crossing points only, whereas the cyclists should be asked to keep away from the main roads.

It's not allowed to use the hazard lights while the vehicle is moving. How many idiots have you seen yesterday with their hazard lights blinking?

Many things are not allowed on the roads. Does anybody care?

I agree that pedestrians need to be more careful and aware of the road traffic and speeds. I also think that drivers also need to be careful of cyclists and give them the space they require.
