The Indian Traffic Scenario 2020




I get excited when I foresee traffic situation in 2020.
Roads:
Roads will be widened to the maximum possible space but the traffic will still flow as a perennial stream @ 10 km/hr. Yes, the road dividers will be thin sliced to give way to traffic.
Flyovers will have multiple levels, one over the other. You will be paying a Rs.300 bill if you wish to travel from the top tier.
Every house will have a red light; you can enter the road only once it’s green!

Cars:
Nano will be big ancient petrol run car. Companies will fight to build even smaller car. Marketers from B-school will be positioning them on the grounds of sideways shock absorbers! Yes the side body of the car will contain 6” shock absorbers on all sides. Latest technology will allow 1 minute come back of dented portion guarantee. Car body will of fiber plastic till window allowing ample space for daily collision and scratches. The day you don’t get one will be considered misfortune!
All cars design will be like this:



So that bikers can ride over the car and overtake without disturbing the car driver.(Traffice rule: Biker got to overtake from the top left side of the car only as driver is sitting on right)





Car Insurance:
They will provide 30 minute guarantee to reach on site of collision like pizza guys used to do in 2010. The mobile team will be accessible on toll free number. They will inspect both vehicles and take photograph and issue cheque amounting to damage calculated by an algorithm written by IIM-A guy.
IMT marketing guys will be positioning auto insurance companies on grounds of 2 minutes claim settlement on road (collision site).


Animal fencing from the highways will be removed as there won’t be any left to come over. Guess where the animals of 2020 are, they all will be driving the car!
