Solution to Traffic jams in Singapore - 1


Traffic jams have become part of life in almost every major city on our dear Earth. Vehicle breakdown, accidents  etc etc are the major reasons. Most importantly lack of facilities to clear the mess - machines and humans, quickly and efficiently.

We all understand and agree that there is something called law and legal enforcement officials and

procedures etc etc which we shouldn't be interfered with. But I think it is very reasonable to ask them to move on and move fast to make everybody's lives easy and happy. Now, how do they do it? They are tied down by soooo many things!!! Now, it is becoming a totally different topic. So, let's stick with one we started with - Traffic.
 

The best solution to clear the traffic jams on major express ways is to use helicopters!!! Yes!! Quick movement across the sky can relieve EVERYBODY!!! Vehicles cleared - no traffic
jam. Victims sent to hospitals on time - lives saved. Damaged vehicles quickly available for inspection - insurance paperwork done almost instantly (here I am tempted to put a smiley face)

Every country is spending millions of dollars on defence, on a war and protection which may or may never happen. Just in the name of preparation and to show to the world that they are 'ready' to defend themselves in case 'somebody' attacks them. Sometimes when I hear about the US deployments in middle East, I wonder if it is really for peace as the animosity that is created seems to be much more. OK, another topic.

Why not for a change show the world that not a penny is spent on military in the name of preparation of defence instead use the personnel and the equipment for the betterment of humans?
