No Entry
Today again I paid a fine for driving the bike in a one-way lane. This is a small lane less than 60mts which leads into Thyagaraya Road in T.Nagar from G.N.Chetty road. I did not see the sign, may be I was not concentrating on the driving. Ironically a man shouted at me something but I could not hear it clearly because of the Helmet I was wearing. 9 seconds after that I knew what he was shouting when the traffic police stopped me. Sure I violated the traffic rules, the second time un-knowingly, previously it was 2 years ago. So the total sum of rupees paid for violating traffic now raises to Rs. 150
Both the times I have done it un-knowingly but that does not make me any greater. All I spent was few minutes each time quietly paying the money yet feeling guilty of not obeying the traffic rules. But, One question still remains un-answered are the traffic rules is it for regulation or law. I feel dis-appointed for paying money twice if its for regulation but guilty it is for law. Some time I would think more on what I think of regulation/law. Till then its 150*
