Cappuccino in Chennai Traffic

A shot or two of espresso poured into a cup which is then filled with half steamed milk and half foam milk so that it is one third coffee, one third milk and one third milk foam - That's the recipe for Cappuccino.

If one gets an urge to drink this lovely cappuccino or meet friends at a coffee shop, behold your thought. Take time to think about the "Maddening Chennai Traffic". New Traffic arrangements that is in effect for the last 2-3 days, have not really eased any situation. The traffic department tried to make some routes as one-way (well, possibly a good thought) but the idea seem to be a colossal failure, as either way they are unable to control the traffic.

But I should definitely say one thing - for the first time, I came to know that there were more traffic constables than I ever thought of or one has ever seen on roads. The number of constables seen seem to even exceed the numbers seen during the former CM's trip.
And more surprisingly, you are able to see them any time of the day and regulating traffic, instead of collecting "Fines for illogical reasons".

Not digressing far from the topic, the traffic situation near T Nagar is .....(am still finding a word to describe it.) It is usual to see maddening traffic situations during festive season. But this time we have a Diwali Gift in the name of "Making of Flyover", adding to the chaos.

Strictly speaking on the teaching lines of Gita, it is testing the patience of Chennaites and let's hope "Whatever happens, happens for good"!
