In US and other developed countries, 90% people follow lane discipline. In general, most people follow traffic rules. If you have been a driver in both worlds (developed/developing), you would find dramatic differences.
In India, people do not either know the rules or do not care about them. They work on the symptom 'me first -I am smart'.
When you are on road, free space, empty red light crossing are all temptations to the above symptom. They give into this temptation to jump a red light all the time without realizing the repercussions.
'There is space for taking U turn, and my bike can go, then I will simply take it'.'I don't care what rules says, who's there to watch.'
Here is an attempt to educate the people.
