Sandwiched between the jam

Well friends, we usually find jam in a sandwich but on the GT road we find ourselves sandwiched between the jam. After having just returned from such a terrible jam which was worse than usual owing to the wedding season I would like to analyse the disastrous situation on such a national highway. In fact I've thought about it a several times that how does a jam actually start on a road where once the traffic was flowing smoothly. Let me present my views the way I do it......

What exactly is a jam?
To a child it may be an ingredient
used in sandwiches just like cheese and ham
but to most of the Indians today
it is the chaos on the roads that all see
and once you're caught, you're caught I daresay

How to end this nonsense?
A child may innocently say
finish it off in a gulp immense
but for general indian traveler
it is no less than a maze

crossing which is a big adventure

Where does it come from?
A child's view on this will be
that the source is a bottle or maybe a factory
But to most of the people on the street
the origin of this mess is a big mystery
that how do we suddenly have a cars' fleet

Then to these children I explain what's the fuss
that what they mean is the jam we eat
but we are talking about the jam that eats us
Some occurs due the vehicles that get broke in between
some come due to numerous roads conjoining on the same road
all which lead to crowding of cars umpteen


To prevent all this we need to keep our vehicles strong
so that they do not cause others trouble
also try to keep away from driving in ways wrong
we should also make use of public transport more
buses and metros are the best option or maybe pool cars
so that we can reduce these vehicles galore


Signing off...
A victim of traffic jams

PS- Please share any incidents that have happened with you during these jams. And definitely comment if you have never faced one in your life.
