He said, “The unruly drivers and bike riders has been creating a menace in Dibrugarh by not following any traffic rules. In some busy street without any reason, they run their bikes in high speed causing fear and problem to the pedestrian. But the police didn’t do anything to such bike riders,”.

“Due to poor traffic management of Dibrugarh town, the unruly bikers takes the advantage and creates problem for the people. The parking system of Dibrugarh is so poor that anytime any untoward incident can happened. The District administration should streamline the parking system of Dibrugarh and launched a crackdown against the unruly bikers,” said Ramesh Gogoi, a resident of Dibrugarh town.

Despite the complained by the local residents of Lachit Nagar about the road side car parking issue, the concerned department failed to address the issue.
