One of the causes of not only traffic jams but also accidents is not having a designated road for motorcycles and bikes. There are so many of them now compared to a few years back.
What are the biggest road safety concerns in Bahrain and ways to resolve them?
Traffic jams are mainly felt on Shaikh Isa Bin Salman Highway, Al Estiqlal Highway, Shaikh Salman Highway and Budaiya Highway, according to commuters.

Daily I am going to the causeway and there is one accident almost daily.
1. Speed limit should be reduced to 80 and 100 maximum;
2. No grace speed for flash and camera. 100 limit 102 should be a fine;
3. Cars for delivery guys.
Low speed will take time to reach destination but will be constant.
No accident, no jam after accident.

I think one of the causes of not only traffic jams but also accidents is not having a designated road for motorcycles and bikes. There are so many of them now compared to a few years back. I think its time to design the road with additional lane for them. I see how they drive, and no, it isn’t safe.

STOP camping in the left lane. If you’re not driving fast, stay in the right lane.
@joker_real1
Respecting the speed limits and cars proximity on the back to be allowed to pass.

Signs for humps.

Need a separate lane for two wheelers especially for the delivery guys, they’re rushing badly. The main four crossing junctions should need a traffic police in person.

One thing I have observed is that the “Give way” and “Stop” signs are being ignored. Even if there is oncoming vehicles, people behind you start blaring their horns to make you move into the already blocked roar or oncoming traffic.

1. People are impatient, they want to reach very early which leads to accidents.
2. Maintaining improper speed and driving in wrong lane which also leads to accidents.
3. Motorcycle delivery boys should obey traffic rules.
4. Required more vigilance camera in many places.

Smoking in their car, with open window and throwing the ashes outside, people who do that have to be educated.

Remove bikers first.

Distraction and use of a phone while driving.
@alliyankhalid
Just make another lane in every road, a single accident creates jams on every road connecting with it.
@_.a.xxl
Drivers who drive slow in the left and middle lane, go all the way right if you are 10-20km under the limit.

Shura Council road near the UAE Embassy.
@ajazahmedajazahmed
Please implement odd and even days for cars; this will help traffic and also avoid pollution.
@fuzain91
Road signs to mention that no lane change from this point; or no lane change zone ahead.
@m_a_n_u_mohanan
I have felt the need for all motorbikes to stick to one lane, so they don’t come under speeding SUVs ... especially those delivery bikes...

I feel there should be a separate lane for two wheelers.

Stop the entrance of Bahrain Financial Harbour from the highway. Make an alternate route for entry. This will reduce 80 per cent of the early morning traffic and accidents caused on the King Faisal Highway.
