Subject : Complaint letter about the problems of traffic jam in our city.
Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your reputed newspaper, I would like to make everyone aware about the traffic jam in our city . Due to this huge population and the increased number of public and private cars, the city often faces bad traffics.
The number of people living in this city, the cars they are using and the public transportation they need is higher than the number of roads. As a result, the traffic jam often occurs and people have to suffer. Another reason for the traffic jam is the unauthorised parking of cars in the street. People do not often follow the exact traffic rules and because of their sincerity, we often face the horrible traffics in the street.
The traffic jam in our city is one of the terrible things the city dwellers have to face. People get stuck on the roads and they have no idea when they would be able to reach their destination. Because of this jam, people often miss important schedules, students can’t reach school in time and the outcome is devastating. Because of the jam in the street people have to schedule accordingly and the total time killed in the street is simply a waste of time.
There are many steps which should be taken to reduce the jam in the street. First of all the people who are driving in the street should very strictly follow the traffic rules. The traffic control authority should more strictly apply the rules. The number of private automobiles is increasing rapidly. Many single families own multiple cars and thus increase the number of total cars driving in the street. The rule should be imposed on purchasing cars and the price of the fuel could be increased as well. The public transportation system should be improved so that people can travel on public cars. The city has more population than it can comprise and decentralisation of industries, offices and educational institutes can be another solution to this abhorrent problem.
Hope you publish my article in your upcoming newspaper.
Thanking you sir,
Yours honestly,
Ajeet Roy.

Subject: Chaotic traffic in the area
Respected Sir,
This letter intends to bring to your kind attention the unimaginable harassment that the people are facing around my school, due to the growing instances of traffic jams. We know that the number of vehicles on the roads is on the rise and that there is no proportional increase in the number of roads. So, traffic jams are bound to happen. But I do not intend to disturb you with things that do not have an immediate solution.
It stretches one’s tolerance to the ultimate limit when a difficult situation is aggravated due to the irresponsible behaviour of a few rogue drivers. The Buses and autos on this busy road show an appalling disregard for any kind of traffic law. Buses stopping here and there, autos coming and going through and into every corner and side of the traffic imaginable, drivers getting into an ugly argument on the middle of the road etc., cause havoc for the daily commuter. Also, it's a school zone, so it is even more dangerous for us students who walk in this area.
Auto drivers are presumably above the law for no police officer seems to have the courage of taking them to task because of their strong union. Please do not mind my mentioning the passivity of the police officers posted in the area. Some of the leading newspapers in the area yesterday published photographs of a police officer and a constable smoking (despite the Supreme Court ban) on the Alipore Road even while the traffic was in the doldrums. Need I say more?
It seems that the concerned officers respond to the call of duty only when some minister is using a particular road. I hope you do not construe my helplessness as rudeness.
The most difficult hours during the day are in the morning, when we go to school, and in the evening, when we are returning back home. There are a total of four schools in my area, and this makes the traffic even worse. This is due to the private vehicles that are used to drop us and pick us up from school. I suggest that measures are taken to create an awareness against the usage of private vehicles. Personally, I walk up to school because I live only five minutes away, but, the roads are more dangerous for us pedestrians as there are drivers who try to ride their scooters from every possible space available on the road as well as footpath.
I suggest that a diversion be created along the road that leads to the school, this would make the road a bit safer to walk on. I also suggest that a traffic inspector is assigned to manage the traffic, as the absence of one creates a complete chaos every day on the road.
We have faith in the Police Department and fully understand that there are some dedicated officers who are working day and night to ensure our safety in every sphere. With all due respect to them, I believe that the Police Department needs to pull up its socks to combat the menace of nuisance drivers who aggravate the problem of traffic jams in our city.
Thanking you in anticipation,
Yours sincerely,
Vinay Bora
