Auto Rickshaw : The city demon

Auto Rickshaws (the popular "auto" for the city men ) should be banned !
Not all, but the wedge type autos ! They are devils of the City !!
The three wheeled autos have a wedge shape. They wedge the traffic in crowded roads.
These wedges are scary, they cause serious problems to the 2-wheelers.
The autos ( I have Trivandrum autos in my mind ) never stop behind another vehicle. They wedge between two vehicles in its front.
Its different with the proper 3-wheelers. I mean, the type of three wheelers having a uniform body width( not wedge shaped).
I think the worst designed automobile in this world is the wedge autos. I pray, someone do something to Ban all wedge autos.
Traffic authorities should ask the wedge makers to modify the shape immediately. They should change it to full width front end.

But another immdiate issue is : TRAIN ALL AUTO DRIVERS in Trivandrum ( and elsewhere , if required) on 'how to behave, with their passengers and other motorists'.
