    When returning from abroad, it is advisable to hire a car with a driver instead of driving yourself. The driving culture here is quite challenging, with motorists exhibiting aggressive and often thoughtless behavior. Concepts like quality of life, discipline, and general civic behavior seem unfamiliar in this country. Superstitions also play a significant role, as some might turn around without signaling if a black cat crosses their path, posing a potential hazard to your vehicle and life. It's a wonder who instills such thinking in our minds. Om Shanthi to the departed soul

    In India no body is following traffic rules, because our system has gone to such a bad stage, every where negligence.

    My dear Prabhuji, majority follow the traffic rules ......thats why there are no accidents continuously. Few with rash driving or due to influence of alcohol or due to potholes commit accidents....If all do not follow then....you can imagine..
