Efficient traffic management system needed

I fully endorse the sentiment expressed by the writer, in his piece "Remembering Zaglul: Not a requiem but a will to remedy needed" published in TDS on January 30, 2015. He mentioned our failings as "It is our misfortune..........." I would like to say that is the dominance of corruption and unwillingness to create an efficient system that is the root cause of the problem. Instead of issuing license to untrained and incompetent drivers in exchange of money, license should be issued properly. If the minister fails to remove unfit vehicles from the roads t then he should resign. It must also be looked into why police turns a blind eye to the traffic rules violations.

In order to have an efficient traffic management system, the city corporations, R&H, police and BRTA must work under one umbrella.
