Which according to you is the Most Serious Traffic Offence (MOSTO)?

For me, driving connected the incorrect broadside of the roadworthy is the biggest issue. It has go a large nuisance wherever I live. Imagine backstage buses and trucks speeding down the incorrect side—it happens each time and has go normalized.
This behaviour leads to galore indirect accidents. Picture idiosyncratic speeding connected the incorrect side, forcing motorists successful the left-most lane to abruptly swerve retired of the way, lone to collide with idiosyncratic overtaking them astatine that moment. Our state loves shortcuts!

What's worse? I besides find vehicles belonging to the postulation constabulary driving connected the incorrect side! Traffic constabulary driving connected the incorrect broadside successful an exigency I understand, but not due to the fact that the U-turn is simply a fewer 100 metres away.

I deliberation astir bash not recognize the gravity of this situation. A speedy lookup astatine the fines for this offence was a paltry Rs.500/-.

Nothing much superior than drunk driving. It's got everything wrong:

- High speeds usually

- Poor situational awareness
- Lack of power - carnal arsenic good arsenic emotional
- Unaware and guiltless roadworthy users astatine hazard

It's similar handing a limb implicit to a mentally unstable person.
