The thrill of getting anything under the sun delivered to your doorstep within 10 minutes is sweeping across cities, thanks to multiple platforms offering ultra-fast delivery services. But are we paying a price for this convenience? Chetan B.C. dives deep into the dark side of this gig economy explosion. Middle-class families are quickly getting addicted to these services. Imagine ordering snacks, groceries, or even gadgets, and having them in your hands in the blink of an eye! While this sounds fantastic, the surge of delivery riders zipping through city streets is creating a mess. More vehicles on the roads cause bigger traffic jams that slow everyone down. But that's not all. The flood of delivery bikes and scooters is also stirring up law and order challenges. With so many people rushing to meet tight 10-minute deadlines, violations like jumping red lights or cycling on footpaths are becoming common, putting pedestrians at risk. Chetan B.C. explains, "The gig economy might sound like a dream with everything at your doorstep in minutes, but it silently adds pressure on our traffic system and policing resources." So, while the middle class enjoys speedy service, cities are finding it harder to keep traffic smooth and maintain safety. It's a spicy cocktail of convenience and chaos that's challenging urban life like never before!
