I don’t know where lane discipline improved in Punjab. If you travel on three lane road, two lanes will be completely occupied by motorcycles and rickshaws, and one lane will also partially used by them. They feel insult when some car horn them from behind. Don’t check sides when changing lane. Always go into spaces at red signals and stop far ahead of zebra crossing at signals. Lot of improvement required in road discipline.
People of punjab use motorcycles as primary veh for transportation of their children and family.Their should be no Challan when bicker is moving with his wife and children. As our public transport system is not enough to cater for needs of public.
