Traffic Jam

Traffic Jam

Traffic jam means a long line of vehicles that cannot move or that can move very slowly. It is a common affair in the big cities and towns of our country. There are many causes of traffic jam. The population is increasing rapidly and the number of vehicles is also increasing for the movement and transport of the people but the roads are not increasing. The narrowness of the roads, unlicensed and uncontrolled vehicles, illegal parking, insufficient traffic police, reluctance to obey the traffic rules by the drivers, overtaking tendencies etc. are some of the main causes of traffic jam.  It brings a great suffering to us. It wastes/ kills our valuable time. It hampers our work. We cannot reach school ,college, office and hospital in time.  It causes great sufferings to the dying patients being carried in an ambulance. It blocks the movements of fire-brigade vehicles. It makes us helpless in emergency need of movement. However, the problem should be solved. The number of roads should be increased. Sufficient traffic police should be posted on important points. Unlicensed vehicles should be removed. Drivers should be conscious about traffic rules and regulations. Illegal parking should be checked. Traffic rules should be enforced strictly so that the drivers are bound to obey them. These are some of the ways how traffic jam can be controlled.
