There is, for instance, this Srinivagilu village road (which is an ideal link to the Intermediate Ring Road for Koramangala S T Bed layout residents, heading towards Indiranagar side), where, at any time of the day or night, you'll come upon herds of cattle, particularly buffaloes, moving about all over; in fact living on the public roads itself. With the alround development in the area, causing the property prices to go up tremendously, the owners of these cattle herds very likely sold off the land they earlier had, for tethering them, and are today using the public roads for the purpose. All kinds of new construction, coming up all over the place, is a testimony to that.

City limits should be made applicable
I am in agreement with you. Infact, concerned authorities should make it mandatory to apply city limits for movement of bullock carts, tractors ( specially used to transport building materials)
If limits are made for movement of heavy duty trailers ( they need to move only on ring roads and during specific timings only) , they can as well make it for the above.
However, in a system, where the traffic commisioner is organising ' road shows' ( also, Central govt is providing income tax benfits for pedestrian safety initiatves), the state of our footpaths makes one feel that we live in a Banana Republic with scant regard for laws. Hence, I am not sure if the law is passed for the above suggestions, it will be implemented in spirit
