To be Disciplined or Not to be!

I love riding my moped and I'm a good rider, at least a decent one. Even though i have learned driving a car and got myself license, i usually don't drive it inside city because i lack confidence and wouldn't want to trouble others. But here are few issues i face:

While i ride to work everyday, there is a railway gate on the way. I usually stand behind the vehicles, but most of the bikers, Autos and even cars go on the opposite lane to reach at the front even if a traffic cop standing there shooing them off. I feel pity about this man, who gets no respect and doesn't know how to utilize his power. This place has traffic jam most time of the day, especially more during peak hours or when train passes by. But because of people who do not follow any lane discipline, it not only causes more traffic jam but makes people who are disciplined enough get late to work and get annoyed early mornings.

And what's with people taking left or right or U turns without indicating others? And worst are these bikers who cut edges and overtake. Sometimes Accidents are just no accident but some FOOLS negligent driving. 

Jumping signals because you can reach your destination 2 minutes early? What if someone doesn't reach his destination ever because of your negligent driving. Would you be able to forgive yourself?

People follow rules only until they get license it seems like. Having good moral and good driving skills has its patience. I might just yell or hit someone one of these days. Facing these issues everyday, makes me wonder why should i follow lane discipline when living around such Uncivilized people !
