Follow Traffic Rules For Yourself ; Not For The Cops!
If someone asks you that do you follow all the traffic rules,your quick response will be yes.
But really,keep your hand on your heart and answer the same question with deep introspection.There would be many time,when you didn't wear helmet,seat belts and have travelled in triple loading on a bike and only thing that you cared at that time is to not get caught in the eye of the Police.
Traffic rules are not for Police to check but for our own safety.With over 130,000 deaths annually,India is the accident capital of the world.Every road accident has some victim,who never knew that their life will be turned around by a small mistake.

I saw all riders on the road wearing a helmet. It was truly satisfying to see. Finally, people were taking a right step.
People have used all the excuses in the book for not wearing a helmet - some of the more common ones are that it is too hot (especially in chennai), hair-loss (yes, some people actually believe that wearing a helmet caused them to lose hair), neck pain, ear pain, inability to see clearly etc. No one seemed to compare those to losing their lives! Then when the order came from the Government, everyone complained that the helmets were too expensive. I guess they'd rather spend the lakhs in hospital costs for injury than Rs. 1000 for a helmet!
So there was Chennai taking a step in the right direction. We finally realized that there were too many deaths caused due to riders not wearing helmets when using their motorcycles.
