To fix L.A.'s traffic, we need tolls

Starting 2011,I used to go to Bangalore once a year. The number of trees cut down, the number of new cars on the road, and the terrific traffic all boggled my mind. Car after car of software engineers, probably perfectly pleasant to work with, would just lay on the horns despite knowing perfectly well that the first car was stopped at a red light. If I ever go back to India, Bangalore is the first city that's off my list of places to live in.

That is just plain stupid, short of being a giant asshole, you don't lay on the horn cause someone respected a light/stop sign. Sounds like a city to avoid.

It's clear you have not been to most Asian cities.

Depends on whether you consider respecting the light a hindrance to traffic or not.

But I did think Bangalore was a little worse than where I'm from, probably because there were more entitled folks.
