Death lurks

Walking in the congested oneway road heading home, I happen to witness a van carrying a dead body going against the traffic. Cops seeing it immediately paid the last respect irrespective of what he was when alive sent the Van to proceed without any hindrance paving ways in the heavy traffic city. This happens in many cities that people take advantage of going against law when dead is dead causing more death or close to death kind of riding. It's amazing to see even a Cop pay the last respect by removing his hat but different person have different way of thinking and accepting life.
Even in Chennai, I have seen Water tankers coming in the wrong direction close to midnight. Well, irrespective of the time, it is always dangerous since it can cause fatality to a genuine rider or driver. Sometime this will cause and alarm and the jittered law abiding road monger might lose control and the may result in unexpected damages. Wish the surveilliance camera is installed in all the important locations to monitor and arrest these kind of drivers with huge penalities discouraging the others to stop doing it. Collecting a little money will only make it more merrier for some young and immatured water tank drivers. It's not only water Tankers even the cars who use the wrong direction driving are a threat to anyone.

Banned baggy pants - Atlanta is considering banning the baggy that show the thongs or boxer shorts. Yes, last evening I happen to see a guy walking with the same kind of baggy pant - even he might not know what and where it is inside so loose the pant was hanging. It's really funny to see these guys.
Another danger that lurks over our head is the dead tree branches. This is surely to fall on someone sooner or later and maybe cause dire consequences. Atleast in Chennai the trees are young but in Bangalore the Big and huge trees are a real threat. Wish with many corporate in the city, someone could sponsor to cut and trim the branches to add more strenght to withstand the wind and also save life and our vehicles. Solution is not chopping the trees but trimming the right and sliding brances for the trunk to balance and withstand. Anyhow these things arent likely to happen but blogs are nice to shed out our feelings and concerns.

Its not only happen in your city, but also in ours. But compare to your city my city has more sophisticated trafiic. Still we are far behind compared to the trafiic in London,New york,middle east countries and far east countries. Even though I have not been to these countries but I have heard many experiences from many people.
