Traffic jam is one of the worst problems of mechanical civilization. It makes life hellish. It is really tough to find who has not had the excruciating experience of traffic jams.
Traffic jam refers to a long line of vehicles on the road leading to a serious roadblock. It is a common picture of the major roads of Bangladesh. It is also seen in the town or even rural roads. There are some causes behind this. Firstly, many drivers are ignorant of traffic rules while some others deliberately violate traffic rules. This leads to a serious roadblock. Again, plying of various vehicles with different velocity causes traffic jams. The vehicles with high speed are sometimes blocked by vehicles with less speed. Then traffic jam is largely due to thousands of rickshaws plying on the busy roads. Besides, sometimes water clogged on the road leads to traffic jams. Finally, poor driving, reckless parking alongside pavements and unhealthy competition among drivers cause a traffic jam. It can be solved by maintaining traffic rules strongly as well as making drivers conscious about following these rules.
