Actually traffic does not move here either. All that movement you see are the zip-zoom types who get on to the sidewalk and drive their vehicles on them or else a speeding vehicle on the opposite side of the road... that kinds. And they are the ones who cause those accidents as well. Here even the APSRTC buses drive half on the sidewalk (they can not get their whole vehicle on the sidewalk thats why) when there is a jam. The problem here is everyone here is in a perennial hurry and whenever there is a long queue because of a jam some nuts inevitably think that they are the smartest fellas and immediately go on the wrong side of the road. In the process they do not reach even half a km but block the road so badly that it becomes difficult to unravel the knot.
