This week’s is a gold mine of a newsletter Pritesh. As a fellow-victim of the traffic and infra chaos in Bengaluru, if I might add a couple more things on the part of road users… the lack of common sense and a total lack of empathy (read design thinking). Design thinking not from a design perspective but just figuring how our actions may cause chaos and confusion on the roads.
True. I'm baffled on how we could be taking such bad choices. May be there is something that I don't understand about how such designs are done. But from my point of view and limited knowledge the current design is super bad and conducive to create more pain.
Agreed. The design does seem deeply flawed, at least from what we can see and experience firsthand. But I also believe that, as citizens, we must share part of the blame. When people are confident they can get away with breaking traffic rules without consequence, it becomes part of the problem. Poor design may invite chaos, but collective behaviour often amplifies it.
