USA to USA 3

So very Indian... Dont know if Piaggio really makes these transport vehicles... and am sure these guys dont care either..... So happily perched on top of already overloaded vehicle...blissfully negligent of the traffic regulations..... nobody cares... for the perennial speeds of 20 kmph of the overflowing mumbai roads, nothing serious is bound to happen to him....only, he might die faster for the amount of pollution he gets to breathe......

not to forget, the all indian transport vehicle phenomenon "HORN O K PLEASE"....

Honking is taught from the first day of your driving classes... To take a turn you honk... to overtake you honk... and to scare the shit out of the front vehicle fighting to go faster... you honk..... and now.... the vehicle owners request you to honk themselves :) ..... In the US, we see the totally opposite... a friend who bought a car recently, realized that he didnt have the horn working till about a month after he bought the car.... :) honking is cursing in the US, honking is courtesy in India!
