Wish they allow all to click photos of violators and MMS them, and fine them based on the photos. The Indica could have stopped well before the zebra, but it didn't so the two bikes too encroached1/3rd of the zebra. Zero tolerance is the way to go, I am sure that it will help.

Yellow line...
The dreaded scratcher, these (blue) tempos cause most dents and scratches. Tempo is happily on the wrong side, slowing down the oncoming traffic. This is the signal near Sadashiva Nagar police station. The road from IISc to Mekhri Circle.
Many a times I put my hand out and stop people from going on the wrong side. I yell but do not attack the person, just tell what is wrong. Something like "Don't go on the wrong side, it will create a jam". Yelling in kannada helps. Typically, one would be tempted to yell something like "Are you blind? Can't you see? Don't you know the rules?" This definitely leads to a personal altercation.
Human tendency is to not to attack you personally, if they are not attacked personally. Most times the drivers turn sheepish. Interestingly, you immediately get support from others in the vicinity.
Hope all drivers do their bit to keep traffic smooth, one not only has to follow rules, but also try to enforce it in a small way.

spinning in Bangalore,,,
Returning home, hit Old Madras Road from 100 ft road, no entry! no left turn!!
U turn and tried to hit from 80 ft road, again no entry! no left turn!!
U turn and went on ulsoor road, took a left at Ulsore police station and landed back in Indiaranagar 100 ft road. Should have continued straight to Trinity circle.
Hmm... quite a spin, reason for blockage, Bengaluru Metro. I was driving on this road after a gap of four weeks, so was caught by surprise. Incidentally, when driving on Old Madras Road on way out, felt traffic was SMOOTH! Dawned at midnight it was due to one way traffic.

No respect for the Zebra
Red light jumping and standing!
This is at Richmond Circle. The auto is pretending to be an pedestrian, he is bang in the middle of the zebra and all the bikes to the right of it too. You can see that the signal is red, cop too was present.
Think they should install cameras at crossings and click the violators and fine them.
