All Chennaites will agree with me on the following crucial issues that effect all those who stay in Chennai:
1. Chennai Traffic and maintenance of roads is horrible. Adding to it is the one way system which will ensure you don’t reach your destination in time irrespective of the best possible plan you make.
2. Traffic policeman, who you can see in every possible corners, are there only to catch hold of bikers and reap money irrespective of all the required documents you furnish or not. Whether the traffic is going hay fay all they bother is bossing around or looting money than ensure proper traffic management.
3.Auto Rickshaw drivers charge you double/ triple the actual cost. Meters are an unkown thing in Chennai atleast. You have to pay in excess of normal fare, extra cost in case of rain or during night which starts from 8.00.p.m. as per rick drivers. Apart from this, whenever the traffic is out of control, the auto rickshaw will break down and you can find yourself standing in between the traffic and searching for a different auto which obviously will not turn for another half hour min.
4. In case of monsoons, be ready to swim in the streets as it would be like a swimming pool. You won’t be able to identify where the gutter is.
