People flouting traffic laws is a major issue in India, and jumping traffic signals is quite an epidemic. While many people try to get away with it saying they didn’t see the traffic signal or the traffic policeman at an intersection. The state of Hyderabad is working on a solution to this problem with a new form of a traffic signal, which is fitted to the width of the road right before the zebra crossing. The new system has been installed at the KBR Park junction on a trial basis. The lights are embedded into the road like reflector road signs and are waterproof.
The lights change color as per the intersection’s traffic signal from green to orange to red and are far more visible than traditional traffic lights, which at times are blocked by hoardings or trees, or large vehicles. The pilot project, if proven successful, will be taken to other roads across the city of Hyderabad.

The pilot project, if proven successful, will be taken to other roads across the city of Hyderabad.
The system should make traffic lights more visible and inculcate the habit of stopping before the zebra crossings in road users. It appears to be a viable solution to users jumping traffic signals and should be adopted across the country. But we will know more about the project’s practical viability once the trial in Hyderabad is concluded.
All you need to know about Motor Vehicle (Amendment) Bill
In related news, the Motor Vehicle (Amendment) Bill that the government recently approved has some major changes in making traffic law enforcement more stringent. One of the major changes in the Bill includes a hefty Rs 10,000 fine if a road user fails to give way to an emergency vehicle like an ambulance.
Before the approval of the amendment, there was no provision for fining an offender blocking an emergency vehicle. Also, offenses like drunk driving will now invite a fine of Rs 10,000 instead of the previous Rs 2,000. WHAT IS PLASTIC INJECTION MOLDING?
Injection molding is defined as the common manufacturing process adopted for fabricating plastic parts for a wide range of products. This method is used to manufacture parts that differ in size, application, and complexity. The process involves using a machine called an injection molding machine along with mold and raw plastic. The process involves melting the plastic in the molding machine and injecting it into the mold from where it is cooled and solidified into the final product.
ADVANTAGES OF INJECTION MOLDING IN CHINA
The advantage of using a China manufacturer is that there are more financial savings than Western plastic injection or production. The cost savings involved in mold construction are around 30% to 50% compared with U.S. mold makers. Another advantage of them is the fast design production and the speedy delivery of the first samples of plastic products.
Other advantages include creating larger capacities and the possibility of cheap finishing of products like silkscreen, sublimation techniques, tempo printing, stamp printing, etc. It is also economical and has fast options for manual assembly. It offers various packaging options such as cardboard boxes, blistering, or products sourced from different companies.
Other major advantages include the availability of complex parts and their structures, high efficiency, easy and simple mass production of plastic parts, flexibility in terms of materials, colors, and easy engineering of the molding process. This is also the most cost-effective way of obtaining plastic products as the cost of resin. The manufacturing process is much less compared to metal machining and other molding processes.
