    When the Traffic Police wakeup from their deep sleep ! its a common sight you will find trucks, bus''s, etc driving on the wrong side of the road and the Police just stand and watch them their inaction is the cause of accidents and death . Why cant the Police just give them heavy fines for the offences but they encourage them so that they can collect bribes.
