Traffic "Jammers"

I will first list down all the “Traffic Jammers” which cause unnecessary traffic jams in the city.  I will then proceed to elaborate on one topic at a time, in later posts.
  1. Slow Vehicles Hogging the Speed lane
  2. Lane Discipline
  3. Vehicles weaving across lanes
  4. Buses stopping in the middle of the road
  5. Traffic from side roads ( T Junctions) not waiting for the traffic on the main road to stop before turning into the main road.
  6. Chaos at  cross Roads
  7. Chaos at Railway crossings
  8. Vehicles not keeping to the correct lanes while turning
    1. Vehicles going straight occupying the left lane blocking vehicles that need to turn right
    2. Vehicles on the right lane cutting across the traffic on the lanes of the left to turn left
    3. Vehicles turning right occupying more than one lane, blocking traffic going straight
    4. Vehicles on the left lane cutting across lanes to turn right
    5. Vehicles taking the inner turn while turning right, going into oncoming traffic
    6. Vehicles taking the outer turn while turning left, going into oncoming traffic
  9. Pedestrians and animals crossing the road indiscriminately wherever they want
  10. Cattle on the Road
  11. Unnecessary and huge speed breakers and bumps on the road
  12. Vehicles keeping their headlights on Hi Beam all the time.
I will update this list as and when I remember the ones I have left out
