Amazing apathy

The road users of Bangalore show an amazing contempt for the traffic rules of the city. It is well known that pedestrians care a damn about following traffic rules while crossing roads (or for that matter walking on the footpath), it is horrible to see motorists blatantly violate traffic rules.

And the *most* blatant forms of these violations happen early in the morning. Till a cop reaches the spot and _forces_ people to follow the signals, the signals are an electronic display which people look at, admire and move on. And if you happen to be one of those who dares to stick to the rules, you are scorned upon, abuses are heaped on you, not to mention that ridiculing look from almost all other drivers.

Any signal would qualify here but if you want to have special fun, visit the Family Mart junction on Kanakapura Road or the Deve Gowda petrol bunk near Padmanabhanagar before 8am.
