Slow driving driver caused traffic jam.....

Traffic jam is one of the most common thing in Bangkok, Thailand! We can rarely find a moment without traffic jam on the main roads, or even on the highway. But I'm used to it now :D

yspmyl I dont drive and have no car and anyway I am retiredl I am wondering why with all that horrific traffic more working people do not use buses and trains to get to work and back . it would sure save on gas and car taxes and all the rest of expenses too.I always had to use bus to get to work and it beat worrying about traffic jams too.

That's too bad when caught in the middle of the traffic jam. It's really a waste of time. So,if driving with your own car,i always try to leave home going to work ahead of rush hour. But if really can not avoid the traffic jam...better to keep cool or else,something worst might happen.

Slow driving may be the cause of a traffic jam.But many a time people overtake where there is a possibility of getting in front of another car and jamming the traffic.Where one has to maintain a certain speed one ought to do that as non compliance will result in traffic piling up and resulting in a jam.Following rules properly will enable the smooth flow of traffic.

In our city traffic jam is observed during rush hours. However, I had observed too that being slow or unreasonable slow pace makes other stuck and its worst if you are at the back .. well, it's totally wasting time. If everyone will be responsible with their actions in driving we can get over easily from the traffic jam everyday.

Traffic congestion is a good sign of prosperous at a place. It can not be avoided in our daily life now. If a traffic jam was caused by certain slow vehicles, then those inconsiderate drivers should be compounded. For me, I shall let all of the vehicles behind to over take if I want to slow down my driving speed. I understand that certain area of a country has set the minimum and maximum speed at their highway. All of the vehicles which travel along this highway must drive within this range of speed in order to save the fuel consumption. At other places, a special lane has been reserved for slow vehicles. Most of the while, we have to slow down our vehicle when there is an accident. This is the must to ensure the safety of ourselves and other road users. Be patient and drive.

I hate that too. They should be driving on the slow lane (if there is one) and let the traffic flow smoothly. They should be more considerate as traffic jam adds more stress to our already stressful life. I've seen some d$%k driving super-duper slow on the fast lane and the best thing is, when the other drivers ask him to move aside (by means of honking or flashing), he gave us the middle finger. I know this because I was one of the drivers behind him. Happy Mylotting!!!

I really hate traffic especially due to those reasons you have stated above. It is really a headache whenever there is one. Every time there's a traffic, I would usually try my best to sleep (I'm still not permitted to drive yet). It really is a time waster and it is one of the things I hate here in my country - traffic! Sometimes, I would rather walk than riding a PUV (public utility vehicle) or the car, especially when you are going to a nearby place. I also hate the heat and pollution when traffic occurs.

I know that traffic is one of the big problem everywhere in the world. Every country have the same problem when we talk about traffic. It is really irritating specially when you are in a hurry and suddenly you stop in the middle of the road because of traffic and much more irritating when you see someone in front of you driving with one hand on the wheel and one hand on the cell phone on their ear and moving slowly along the way. And of course as you said, almost all of the driver in all over the world seems have the same problem when there is accident on the road. Every one seems to slowdown in curiosity to see what happened, and this curiosity build a very long traffic jam. So irritating, right?
