The Chief Officer,
Road Transport Authorities,
Fort – 400018.

Subject: Complaining about the problem of frequent traffic jams. 

Sir , 

This letter intends to bring to your kind attention to the unimaginable harassment commuters face on XYZ road due to the growing instances of traffic jams. We know that the number of vehicles on the roads is on the rise and that there is no proportional increase in the number of roads. So, traffic jams are bound to happen.
It stretches one’s tolerance to the ultimate limit when buses and autos on this busy road show an appalling disregard for any kind of traffic law.
We have faith in the Police Department and fully understand the dedication of officers and request you deploy few such officers on this road, to bring this situation under check.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Yours truly,
ABC.
