I would like to paste an honest picture.Though i am from delhi,i truly believe that off late laws are broken overtly without any fear of law.Yes,i do believe that the practice is more prevalant in northern states of Punjab,haryana & Delhi because people here like to show off.Having said that,the state governments have also failed to enforce law in an efficient manner & its no point blaming the chaos totally on ppl.However,let me state for a matter of fact,cars are growing at a frantic pace in delhi & there in no infrastucture in place.It is expected that Metro will soothen the burden in the near future.Having said that,i would also state regarding the controversy of North vs. South.I have stayed in pune for quite some time.I have a feeling that people there have a sense of insecurity against the north indians and the political parties exploit it for their vote bank.The vilified speeches of Raj thekeray were baseless&immature and that should be condemned by the Mumbaikars as well in the highest degree.Otherwise,they would be guilty of adopting double standards.In short,lets not play the blame game & learn to accept our faults and strive to improve them.

well you could point out to Raj that his supporters stick a Jai Maharashtra sticker and break traffic laws just as much as their brothers from N India. They just dont seem to understand that this tarnishes the image of the locals but they continue at it while pointing fingers at others.
