APAD - Non-Lane driving - Result declared

11 March 2011 - 9:05am — Bheema.Upadhyaya

Location: NICE Road(Is that right name, or free-ad for Kheni saab?) , Hosur Road Junction(Clover Leaf), E-City Phase 1

Time: 11-Mar-2011 @8.25am

There is no need of explanation. We were blocked because of this accident. Perfect result of non-lane driving. Both drivers should win award(???) for non-lane driving. Police was busy in "negotiating" with parties.

Voice of Praja and hand of praja

Dear Sir/ Madam,

We have learned from the time we have come to our senses that Government is a huge organization with little ability to take immediate actions due to lack of time, budget and lack of quick communication.

Even the September 11 in US happened due to lack of quick communication and lack of time to scrutinize the security norms.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Going around in circles

3 March 2011 - 8:41pm — murali772

Within one and a half years of its opening, the rotary yield junction at the busy Krishna Rajendra (K.R.) Circle is set to get traffic signals, mainly on account of the closure of the Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Veedhi and opening of the alternative roads for the construction of the Vidhana Soudha underground metro station.

Seat belts optional in Bangalore?

1 March 2011 - 7:52pm — s_yajaman

Is the wearing of seat belts optional in Bangalore? On my recent visits here I find (on a quick check) less than 30% of private car drivers wear seat belts, almost no taxi driver and LCV driver wears one.
