We do not maintain traffic etiquettes. We like to blow the horn unnecessarily. We don&rsquo;t like to stop a few seconds for a car or vehicle which is making its way out in reverse. Many bikers don&rsquo;t wear helmets. We like to cut traffic by overtaking other vehicles from the left side and in the process, creating traffic chaos, especially auto-rickshaws. It seems to me that everyone is in a bloody rush to get somewhere. We don&rsquo;t have patience at all. And for the record, yes, there are many alike who follow traffic etiquettes, but since they are overwhelmed by those who don&rsquo;t follow the rules, the funny thing is they are the ones who seem as though they&rsquo;re in the wrong.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Oh yes! Bikes with extremely loud noises! Don&rsquo;t even get me started. They&rsquo;re a public nuisance and they need to be stringently dealt with by the concerned authorities.&nbsp; Another area of concern which the authorities should look into is underage driving. There are many kids who engage in reckless driving, especially two-wheelers. In such cases, their parents&rsquo; license ought to be seized and suspended.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These are some of the immediate pertinent issues which we need to introspect upon. We need to take a couple of steps back and take a good look at how we ought to conduct ourselves in public. There&rsquo;s much catching up to do!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I Longkumer, Dimapur<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Citizens need to be more disciplined traffic wise<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-226968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/226968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=226968"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/226968\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=226968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=226968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nagalandpost.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=226968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
