Let’s Promote Civilized Behavior on the Street

Posted by mcdamas on August 7th, 2008

As we know in this modern life, people tend to be more stressful. Among many causes, traffic condition contributes to such a condition at high rate. Big cities in many countries face bad traffic condition because the drivers, especially public transportation drivers, are reluctant to obey the traffic rules. That often makes street users annoyed and vent their annoyance obscenely. One factor triggering those to happen is the lack of communication among citizens. Communication here means that there is no common understanding on how to foster and promote a civilized behavior among the street users, especially the drivers.

The key to creating a good communication between the street users is start from us ourselves. Never make it complicated but think simply: “obey the traffic rules” for the sake of all street users’ prosperity. Next, we must also promote “under control emotion” when anything bad is going on like traffic jam or congestion, we all participate in how to cope with the problem. We culture a common thing that is our problem is yours, your problem is ours. Take and give, that is the tag-line in our using street. If all we do the same thing in common, others will follow automatically. And as a result, a more civilized behavior among the drivers or street users will exist.

In short, a good behavior on the street will realize only if all the street users know and understand that the street is for all, not for individual user. HI – 2/R311/Fanny and Anne
