[Resolved]  RTO Mumbai — signal a source of corruption at JUHU opp. Tulip Star.

Address:

Mumbai City, Maharashtra

Sir, The signal opposite TulipStar Hotel at the end of Juhu-Tara Road is a major source of corruption and is use less for the pedestrians. The traffic taking a left and entering Juhu-Tara Road from the Mithibai college side, have to stop for exactly 10 seconds only for the pedestrain crossing, there after the left signal starts again. At the turning opposite Tulip Star a van along with a minimum of 3 constables are always lying in wait for catching those who jump that signal. The issue is, in 10 seconds, no kid leave alone an adult or an aged can ever cross that distance of the road. Hence the RTO gets to collect fines and the some cops on duty collect their cut. This we have been observing daily. So be rational and pragmatic. Remove that van and cops from the corner. Instead let them be parked opposite Amithab Bacchans house JALSA and ensure that the traffic observe the pedstrain crossing Simplify the pedestrain signal by putting it along with the traffic signal of the south bound traffic from the Citi Bank corner towards opposit side of the Tulip star entering the juhu-tara road and going towards the beach.This will give more time for the pedestrain to cross the road. We have discussed this issue with the constables on duty there and even they agree that in 10 seconds no one can cross the road then why the intrruption in the left turn ? only to make money for the RTO and the duty constables from the offenders.
