If there’s a traffic enforcer, there’s probably traffic
Earlier this morning, I was late along with my co-faculty. But even before we were able to reach our class, the checker confirmed we are already absent for the said period. Why? Because of the slow moving traffic at the Manggahan Junction in General Trias, Cavite.
Crossing the said junction will only take you less than a minute (at night). But it took us around 15 minutes to cross the intersection. Because there where traffic enforcers manning the traffic flow at the intersection. It has been a problem for the longest time. The General Trias municipal government is paying 3 or 4 traffic enforcers to make the traffic flow worse. What a WASTE OF MONEY.
Why not the municipal government put up a stop light to control the traffic flow in the intersection?
Usually, it takes a minute or so before the red light turns green. And it is more efficient (as long as it is working properly) than traffic enforcers.
Installing a traffic light on a busy intersection may be more efficient than having enforcers doing the job.
