Hate Mumbai Traffic: What about some new traffic rules?

Rule No.1: Anyone driving a car with less than 3 people inside will be fined 1000 Rs. What will happen if the rule is implemented?
1. This will reduce traffic on roads. There will be less cars on the road.
2. This will increase public interaction. Imagin your neighbor ringing your doorbell at 8:30 in the morning, asking if you need a ride to your ofice.
3. It would reduce no of rickshaws also. People will easily get ride to office.
4. Husband, wife will travel togather, even if they had a fight last night. This will reduce domestic fights.
5. Less need for public transport, less effort for government. This may lead to tax exemption to people who own cars.

So many pros! why don't we implement this rule, right away.

Rule No.2: No trucks in city between 8:30-10:30 in the morning and 5:00-8:00 in the evening.
Everyone knows what will happen. This is already implemented in some cities in India.

Have thougth of 2. Why don't you think of more and let me know.
