It is obvious that careless and indifferent pedestrians are not only a source of danger to themselves but also a source of danger to motorista. As there are so many regulations enforced to saveguard pedestrians, there should also be regulations to stop pedestrians from wanton carelessness thereby Jeopardising the safety motorists.,

Couldn't the services of our Traffic Cops be utilized in pre- venting some of these crazy pedestrians from daydreaming on the roads?

If the police would only arrest and convict some of these posts, there would be less road accidents, and the heavy amount that has towards advertising the gone "Safety-first" campaign need not again be required.

Of course, it might be argued that it would be anti-social for anyone to walk "their dogs where there is a risk of infection. But are not the police aiding in the creation of such an attitude, by forbidding the only healthy means of getting dogs out in the air dur- Ing the hot weather?
