A busy road in North Dhaka 🛣️. A flyover 🌉 comes down onto the road and meets the main road in the middle. Another road joins from the left, and traffic 🚗 is moving on it too. Some cars ️ are parked right on the road, which blocks the way.
People 🚶 are walking freely across the whole road, even though a footbridge 🌁 stands right beside them. Many do not use it. Between the flyover ramp and the road below, there is a small island with a broken part 🚧. Several motorcycle riders 🏍️ stand there, waiting to take passengers on private deals. Many riders prefer deals to ride-share apps because they can ask for a higher fare 💸.
At the same spot, a group of people 🚏 waits for public buses 🚌. They stand on the road, close to fast traffic. This puts everyone at risk of accidents 💥.
Safety Tips 🛡️ 🌉 Always use the footbridge to cross the road. 🚫 Never park on the road or block the traffic. 🚏 Wait for buses at the bus stop, not on the road. 🏍️ Wear a helmet ⛑️ and avoid stopping on broken road parts. 👀 Look carefully before you step onto the road. 📱 Use ride-share apps, so the fare and trip are recorded.
