Today's (8th/Dec) Economic Times carried an item on Page-1 titled "Watchdog may soon put brakes on vehicles".
The body would be responsible to frame legislation/s pertaining to limiting vehicle ownership per household, increased penalties for traffic violations including cancellations, etc.
Pedestrian welfare & Cycling Infrastructure is also being addressed. Strips of 2.5 mtrs width for each is suggested on roads exclusively for pedestrian movement & cycling as also proper street furniture. Congestion pricing is being examined.
This may at least kick-start a more serious campaign to begin the long & difficult task of disciplining our drivers by more severe punishments, as also start a process for protection of pedestrians & cyclists.
I tried to look up the article on ET home page, but was unable to loacte it there. Grateful if someone could try to search & post the full article here - Thanks. 180 users have liked.
