They hardly ever honked! Compared to delhi / gurgaon...was a real pleasure. Some cars even had the courtesy to stop to let me cross!

But still driving is fun. That caption about puppy was one of its kind. But drive on highways and u will see more of such kind.<BR/><BR/>just a note..Bus drivers are the ones who dont honk but then there is a reason. They feel, being a govt employee, they can take the right lane whenever they want and people are aware of it and so avoid to come in the way of buses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861627.post-1118598509253947492005-06-12T10:48:00.000-07:002005-06-12T10:48:00.000-07:00bugger, I meant http://www.stickcricket.combugger, I meant http://www.stickcricket.comphuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454292574105813710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861627.post-1118569082725904692005-06-12T02:38:00.000-07:002005-06-12T02:38:00.000-07:00BTW:http://www.stickricket.comThis is sure to get ...BTW:<BR/>http://www.stickricket.com<BR/><BR/>This is sure to get you addicted...If you know how to handle the spin-bowling, pleas,e do let me know.phuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454292574105813710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861627.post-1118569040700557552005-06-12T02:37:00.000-07:002005-06-12T02:37:00.000-07:00Ah driving in India - most likely the #1 cause of ...Ah driving in India - most likely the #1 cause of hypertension - couple that with 47 degrees weather, and majority of cars/bikes without access to air-conditioners, and you have...well you know what you have....<BR/>Your observations are spot on - but note that Bombay traffic a 1000 times better behaved than the rest of India. I think this is because mumbaikers generally have better civic sense, than short-tempered Punjus, for example.. In Delhi, most laws are obeyed, occasionally. But the one thing I have noticed is that it is the two-wheelers that do the WORST driving. They will try and squeeze in anywhere, and when they take a turn, they always do it in ocoming traffic, leaving their lives in the hands of God, and reaction times of car-drivers...<BR/>To be fair - let's keep in mind that 90% of out cities are over 400 years old. If somebody gave me an empty continent inhabited very sparsely by humans, I'd go out and create grid-systemed cities too...I mean America doesn't have to lay its roads around 800 year old villages, 400 year old tombs of mughal tyrants, and forts, and 1000 year old towers of victory. Plus, as you say, the roads filled with imaginative things. From zero-legged to 16-wheeled contraptions, and everything in between (one-legged, three-wheeled, 2-legged, one-wheeled, e.t.c.). Wouldn't it be nice if we were a mostly-car nation like the western world.

Its quite amazing to see how rickshaws and two wheelers make use of every inch of the road. Know what?
