Traffic discipline in Kolkata
While in Kolkata I liked the traffic discipline. All the drivers and pedestrians were very much conscious about maintaining traffic discipline. There occurred an accident during my stay in Kolkata when a CNG auto-rickshaw hit a child and injured her critically. The authorities promptly took action through imposing some new restrictions on auto-rickshaws.
But I really disliked the human-hauled rickshaws in Kolkata. True, this is a traditional occupation but it is really inhuman! I didn't ride on those rickshaws because it's painful to witness (mostly) barefooted men running on the street with heavily loaded rickshaws.
