Awareness needed

Traffic jam has made our life miserable. We have been told to use public buses rather than private transports. But, are there any good quality buses? Is there any space left for us in those buses? The government should put good quality buses on the city roads, create effective traffic rules and appoint more traffic police to implement those rules. It is also necessary to take the rickshaws off the main roads. A bus can carry 60 to 70 passengers and it requires less space, whereas only four rickshaws occupy the same space and are able to carry only 8 to 10 passengers. There should be lanes fixed for buses with bus stops to pick up passengers and not to block the road. The govt. should persuade the public to use the footbridges and zebra crossings. To make people aware of the traffic rules use of advertisements will be highly effective.
