    The number (volume) of vehicles on roads cannot be added on roads like mobiles in hands.
    Instead the public vehicles need to be adequate to provide cheap and safe transport facilities to the increasing number of commuters, (by discouraging mini and tiny vehicles on main roads).
    As the message and information can be communicated instantly, anywhere and anytime, the late reaching (safe) by person is not a problem or concern.
    Roads are not the show rooms of vehicles to hinder the movement of traffic and block roads.
