Udayms talks about the traffic chaos in Chennai after the recent traffic route changes.

But, on the whole it looks like a nice idea, very pathetically executed. Earlier, the signals used to act as throttling agents to control the flow of the traffic. Now, with no signals. The now traffic is best described as an onslaught on mad dogs let out of a cage after months. Chennai is a city, where lanes on the road for designs for the drivers, where indicators are just fancy lights with no purpose, where one driver doesnt care if the other driver dies on the road as long as he can reach his destination 1 minute earlier. In such a place, widening the road, removing signals etc will only close one hole and open up another hole.
