Traffic Boy

Traffic Boy is the latest Superhero to hit the scene, with never before heard of super powers and the ability to work his incredible powers for the greater good of mankind.

This follows soon after Dorky Guffaw has also made his debut and has had three episodes and another one in the offing within the next couple of days.

Traffic Boy’s origins can be attributed to the on-road crimes committed by the people around on vehicles and the pedestrians, and hence, with the noble intent of rectifying what he felt was seriously wrong with society, the hero, whose name as yet remains a mystery went to the Heavenly Bodies gym (where another prolific LJ guy is a regular visitor) and developed his entire arsenal of super powers that now aid him in making the roads a better place.

Traffic Boy has various super-powers, and here is a list of them that follow. Do keep in mind that this list is not exhaustive, but will be updated, if the author decides not to be too lazy. Fat chance of that happening.

1.Traffic Boy can, with sheer will power, silence errant horns of vehicles parked at traffic signals, or of vehicles plying on roads where horns are honked despite there being no space for any movements to occur. A quick glance towards the source of the offending noise, and voila, it is like someone has pressed the mute button.

2.Traffic Boy has the ability to lock the handle bars and steering wheels of vehicles hell bent on violating the lane rules, thereby preventing them from cutting in on other passengers driving in a straight line on a wide road.

3.Traffic Boy can create a forcefield at signals so that util there is a green signal for the go-ahead, vehicles don’t move. Nobody can cut red signals after that.

4.Traffic Boy can make high beam lights go dim, or in the very worst, burst with a resounding clink should someone use it without reason.

5.Errant riders, who drink and drive and also those that go on footpaths will suddenly find their vehicles punctured and also find themselves out of petrol in a desolate place. Traffic Boy’s ability to engage in multi-person teleportation as and when such offences occur shall hold him in good stead for that.

Traffic Boy shall remain anonymous, riding amidst the sea of vehicles and performing his reconnaissance missions, undetected, unseen behind the visor of his helmet and unheard of, unless he manages to let out an occasional loud fart or screams “I am wanting to break free” at the top of his voice while on an empty road.

More power to Traffic Boy.

    Hey don’t make him anonymous while he is out there kicking some ass. Otherwise how would people know there is a traffic man, they might take their vehicles to be broken!

    You have to give him a schizophrenic down-to-earth guy. Some puny little traffic cop who doesn’t take bribes and gets pushed around easily. Give him a cool mask and an awesome cape and create some super villains. His lady love is optional
