Rangarajapuram flyover connects Kodambakkam and West Mambalam to T.Nagar. It was open only from T.Nagar 24 hours at the beginning and then better sense prevailed. Now between 8 am and 12 pm entry allowed only towards T Nagar side. It reduces the traffic volume on Kodambakkam flyover and Duraisamy subway. But inspite of sign boards mentioning the one way timings and barricade near Vivek and a traffic police motorists do come the wrong way. Why is that the authorities wake up only after some major accident happen? Do they really wake up or act so to blow over the public anger? It is very common to see the old violations coming back after sometime!

Attitude of these young bikers seem to be ‘catch me if you can’!

A busy junction where most of the time traffic signals are respected only due to the presence of Traffic Police. Sometimes even police can’t control. In all this commotion a woman is on mobile unmindful of the traffic. Maybe a student of Zen!

Nonchalant motorists, not just bikes, coming the wrong way that too at a high speed is normal sight. Beware!

Law is there. Police look the other way or too occupied/over burdened. Talking on cellphone creates openings for accidents. Walking on road, crossing the road, riding or driving, many seem to be unaware of everything except their cell phone! Best way to stop this is to start charging the incoming calls like before!
