How to overcome Moscow traffic jams?

I have some experience of driving abroad, and not only in Europe - where there are practically no such large metropolises as Moscow, but also in cities that greatly exceed Moscow in the number of cars, but I have not encountered such huge traffic jams as in Moscow even in Tokyo. I often hear that this is a large and complex problem, and that solving it is very difficult, or even impossible, that it will require a huge amount of money and time. However, even superficial reflections on this topic result in more than a few simple measures that can be implemented very quickly, relatively cheaply and bring tangible results in the near future, without any transfer of people to public transport. These measures can be divided into organizational measures and practical measures. From an organizational perspective, it is obvious that no one is addressing this problem. There is not a single person who is responsible for this problem. In order to solve a problem, you must first pose it. Do you remember, for example, that at least once the head of the traffic police was given a specific task (for example, within a year, reduce traffic jams by 20%, or increase the average speed of traffic in the city by 20%, or in some other format that provides a specific goal that must be achieved at a specific time)??? No, you don't remember, because it didn't happen. Well, that is, there is simply no person who would understand that his task is to reduce traffic jams by 20% and if he does this, he will be rewarded, if he does not do this, he will be fired. Therefore, no one actually fights traffic jams. Have you seen at least one traffic police officer who would try to clear a traffic jam? That's right, we didn't see it. Because they simply don't need it. As soon as they need it, because their management will hit them over the head for it, the traffic jams will immediately decrease. As independent experts who will evaluate the success of the traffic police in the fight against traffic jams, members of public organizations that deal with this issue should be involved; from them it is necessary to create a public center for combating traffic jams that will monitor the activities of the traffic police and coordinate its activities with public and information organizations (Yandex traffic jam service, auto radio.....) in terms of timely provision of information. This center should also establish a system for effectively informing about traffic jams. All information should flow into it - both from information services, and from police cameras that are installed on the streets, and from helicopters that fly over the city, and from volunteers who call and report traffic jams, and then this information should be conveyed to motorists in every possible way ways. For example, on the boards that stand on the Moscow Ring Road, instead of the idiotic “driver obey the speed limit,” there should be information about traffic jams. It is necessary to allocate additional radio frequencies and report on them about traffic jams and detours, etc.... In terms of practical measures, the following can be highlighted: 1). It is necessary to remove traffic police posts from the Moscow Ring Road - now they block 2 lanes out of four at any exit from the city and create traffic jams both on the highway itself and on the Moscow Ring Road. Every day I see how drivers turn from 3 rows to Leningradka from the Moscow Ring Road, only 2 rows go straight. It is clear that in such conditions, the intersection of the MKAD with any highway automatically creates a traffic jam on the MKAD. If you remove the traffic police posts, the Moscow Ring Road will go, and this is a very large part of all traffic in Moscow. 2). On all radial routes: Kashirka, Varshavka, Yaroslavka... it is necessary to remove the bumpers installed on the dividing strip and make a reverse movement (as on Volgogradka), but not along one but two lanes. Now there is complete absurdity when every morning there is a traffic jam in the center and there is no traffic from the center, and in the evening it’s the other way around, while we ourselves have taken away the opportunity to use the free part of the road. 3). It is necessary to change the rules for driving in lanes allocated for public transport. Cars should be allowed to drive onto them if this does not interfere with the movement of public transport. It is completely unclear what is the point of cars standing in a traffic jam and not driving along this lane - if there is no bus??? Now only “thieves’ drivers” drive on it, who can show the inspector their badge and they will be released. It feels like dedicated lanes were organized just for them. 4). On all major highways (on which there are 3 or more lanes in each direction), it is necessary to establish traffic in the far left lane at an increased speed (for example, 110 km/h), prohibit cars moving there at a speed of less (for example, 90 km/h) and drivers whose experience is less than a year, and introduce a good fine for this violation (for example, 3,000 rubles). Because now the left lane has actually turned from the fastest to the slowest, because cars are getting in there that, in principle, should not be there. This leads to the fact that drivers who are in a hurry begin to constantly change from lane to lane, and this leads to frequent minor accidents, which create most traffic jams. 5). It is necessary to significantly increase (for example, up to 5,000 rubles) the fine for drivers not turning on their turn signals. This is also the cause of most minor accidents that create traffic jams. If you often drive a car in Europe, you probably noticed that everyone there turns on their turn signals when changing lanes, which is why there are significantly fewer accidents. By the way, drivers who drive in two rows at once should also be punished with the same severe fine (I’ve also never seen this in Europe). 6). It is necessary to significantly increase (for example, up to 5,000 rubles) the fine for drivers entering a busy intersection that they cannot pass. This will eliminate trap traffic jams (when the intersection is blocked and no one can pass on either red or green). 7). In order for all these measures to really work, it is necessary to eliminate traffic police posts and send inspectors to regulate traffic (do their direct business). It is necessary to deprive them of the right to check any documents of drivers except the driver's license and PTS, take away their alcohol testers, and deprive them of the right to stop cars that do not violate traffic rules. Otherwise, today the traffic police checks trucks’ documents for goods (up to quality certificates), checks technical inspections, checks the level of alcohol in the blood, checks the level of CO in the exhaust gases... (in general, he checks everything for everyone, and does not mind his direct business).
