Some people in society act like they're crazy. For example, in traffic, a driver honking a horn to warn another can ignite a fight. Of course, there are some reasons for this. Because some drivers go beyond the warning by honking their horn several times in a row.
As a result, because we forget to talk and fight comes to the fore in our lives, every action and word brings conflict to the fore. Of course, there are various reasons why society has come to this point. The experts may be able to provide an explanation for this. However, the issue needs to be resolved rather than explained.
I do not know how it will be accepted by the society, but while the rules of courtesy were widely applied in the past, words and concepts such as apologizing and saying excuse me have disappeared from our lives. Instead, everyone thinks he is right and acts accordingly.
The result is bombs explode every day, murders are committed, and concrete is poured in front of an ambulance carrying patients to take them to the hospital. I can't explain to myself how it spills. Because this job cannot be something that a healthy person can do. As such, a general survey of the society is required to correct this mistake. Beyond that, some unhealthy types must be removed from traffic.
Resolving the issue with a fine, in other words, will not be enough to ensure that a similar incident is not repeated. Just as it is not possible to solve every issue with a fine, I think that imposing a prison sentence on every action will not be enough to solve this social problem.
Without further ado, I would like to draw attention to the last two examples of fights, murders and even death in traffic that occur almost every day. The first event was reflected on all television channels. For some reason, a concrete mixer driver persistently refuses to give way to an oncoming ambulance.
The ambulance driver rightly asks for a road. The mixer driver gets very enraged and pours concrete on the road to prevent the ambulance from going. I was stunned when I watched the event on TV. I couldn't find any explanation myself.
Because the ambulance driver is either trying to bring a patient to the hospital or he is going to take a patient to the hospital. Meanwhile, neither the ambulance driver nor the concrete mixer driver even know each other. As such, there is no enmity between them. Moreover, even in hostility, it does not explain or justify the work done. Because it is out of the blue.
It would not be wrong to say that we are facing a serious social problem. In this respect, it is necessary to first investigate the reasons why this situation came to be. Because first to the diagnosis; then treatment is needed. I think it is not possible to explain the issue with only one reason. Because there is a need for widespread work in almost every area of society from education.
In particular, politicians must be unifying, not divisive in society. Because the examples that come before the society are very important. When the economic collapse that deeply affects the society is added to this, if people return to their homes in the evening with the stress of not being able to buy what they need to buy, it is natural for them to return as bombs ready to explode. Let me just say that I don't see it as normal for people to forget their humanity for a number of reasons. However, as a society, we have an obligation to act to eliminate the situation we are in.
In my opinion, people in big cities such as Ankara and Istanbul have fallen behind years ago in terms of kindness and love. When I think of the attitude of people towards each other on city buses and trams in Istanbul, where I went for the first time in 1952, there is no trace of it today. In this respect, it is not enough to make peace and happiness prevail in the society by being enthusiastic about economic development and neglecting the social part of the job.
