Subject: Erratic driving by bus drivers

Dear Sir

I’m writing this letter to alert the general manager of Delhi Transport Corporation about the reckless driving of the bus drivers operating on the Noida to Delhi route through the columns of your esteemed newspaper.

I’ve been taking buses on this route for 6-7 years, and I’ve always had positive experiences with them. However, I have noticed very hurried driving by the drivers over the past two months. Despite the daily commuters’ repeated complaints, the drivers continue to drive dangerously and don’t seem to pay attention to us. When I was leaving work yesterday, I saw a life-or-death situation. The bus struck a truck that was approaching from the opposite direction after the driver failed to stop at a red light. Even though the effect was not severe, it made me lose patience.

The commuters who can’t locate a seat and have to stand the entire way are at the greatest risk. They frequently trip and injure themselves as a result of their rash driving and unexpected stops. The drivers don’t care about the penalties of breaching the law and neither do they adhere to the traffic regulations. They are also not afraid of the law. When we ask drivers to slow down and obey the rules of the road, some of them behave badly toward the passengers and use foul language.

I have sent numerous formal complaints to the relevant authorities, but they don’t appear to be paying attention. Therefore, I officially ask the relevant authorities to look into the situation and to punish the drivers who violate the rules severely. The department needs to conduct appropriate training to raise public awareness, and continue to prosecute rude and reckless drivers.

I hope the Delhi Transport Corporation’s top official will take note of my public complaint about this serious problem.

Yours faithfully,
Prakash

Sample Letter-2 (Reckless driving by Bus drivers)

15, 
Udyog Vihar,
Noida, U.P 

Date: 24 August, 2012 

To, 
The Editor, 
The Times of India 

Subject: About rash driving by Bus drivers. 

Sir, 

Through the columns of your acclaimed daily, I wish to draw the attention of the General Manager of Delhi Transport Corporation towards the reckless and rash driving by the Bus Drivers. 

Delhi being a thickly populated city is under high risk of road accidents due to these drivers driving recklessly, and it is a high time to make sure that these drivers are reprimanded for not following the traffic rules and speed limits. I hope that you will definitely publish this for the public interest, especially considering the huge tally of deaths occurring on the roads due to the irresponsible driving by these bus drivers.

Many women, children and physically challenged people cross the roads everyday and are easy victims of accidents. Yesterday while returning from school, I saw an old lady trying to cross the road getting hit by a Bus which hurled towards her at high speed, unfortunately she couldn’t survive the accident. Not only people on the roads, the passengers sitting in the bus are also at risk due to such rash driving by the drivers. 

I am not saying that speed limits and traffic regulations are not there, but these drivers pay no heed. The police too take little or no notice of such acts. Hence, the offenders keep repeating the same mistake deliberately again and again. I would also like to request the public to take note of such drivers and strict punishment should be given to them. 

Sir, I hope you will take this into consideration, and with your help we can reach the proper authorities to avoid the reckless driving of buses on the roads of Delhi. 

Yours faithfully 
Priti/Prakash
