To control growth heavy vehicular traffic government should make a rule that odd and even registration no. of the vehicle should run on road on alternate days. ie on Monday only vehicle with odd registration no. like 7979 should ply on road and on Tuesday only vehicle with even registration no. like 7980 should ply on road.

To control vehicle crowd and pollution as well government should be strict for four wheeler. No one can go with four wheeler if he wants to travel with passenger less than 3(Except some medical and critical emergency).No one can go office alone by using car at least 3 passenger should be in car.Government and society also should promote using of cycle or public transport even by top level professionals.

To control the pollution problems in India, we only say to use public transports as much as possible instead of his own private vehicles.... Hope you all are aware that in foreign countries like Paris, Florida, UK and few mores - government stopped to move private vehicles at crowded areas and confirmed the societies to use public transport like buses, metro or use bi-cycle if possible...

It is astounding to hear that Dadra Nagar Haveli also has large vehicular traffic. More vehicles cause more pollution and thus are harmful for life. Some measures as to weed out old vehicles should be undertaken. This would not only dump the older vehicles but also cut down on pollution.
