Like a law abiding citizen and waited for the signal to go green.
Since I stopped, another car behind me stopped too.
Then comes a chicken carrier, the Eicher truck, and
starts honking like mad. Though the traffic was scarse,
I did not want to jump the signal.
Then the worst, the car behind me too starts with his
symphony. With two vehicles in orchestra I move ahead,
almost right in the middle of the junction. The car, overtakes me
from the left and jumps the signal, and then the truck too
jumps the red from the left. Thank Allah, I do not understand
much of the expletives in Kannada. But it was a harrowing experience.
All this for being law abiding. I don't know how many commuters
have thrown that phrase in the bin with such experiences.
Solution is simple. Have a yellow flashing light till 7:30am and then
the regular red yellow and green after that. But whom to suggest
and most importantly who will listen.
