Its Ok for me to say all this while I sit at the computer and type this but I used to be a swearing maniac on the road. <br />If it helps - Now I remain in the jam and don't cross over to the wrong side of the road! I have decided to make the difference. Bangalore is a mad house for driving and ever since we moved to Marathahalli it takes me an hour to cover 11 km to get to work!! When I started commuting - I used to be on tenterhooks - calling up my workplace to let them know which part of the jam I was in and how long I thought it would take for me to reach. Now - I don't bother - I switch off the engine ( help the environ also!) lean my seat back and take a power power nap - anything between 3-5 minutes at every signal and there are 15 signals on the way. Its great! believe me - I even smile at others whom I see stuck in a similar fashion -and sometimes even get a reluctannt smile back!<br /><br />MandaarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501883.post-43199226752814537282006-11-02T14:28:00.000+05:302006-11-02T14:28:00.000+05:30Ha ha ha!

My experience, now that I drive on the streets of Mumbai more regularly - One who drives slower than you is an illiterate driver and god knows how he / she got his / her license... the one faster than you is a crazy one who doesn't deserve getting a license anyway! But then i fal in the third category of drivers who ought to get their licenses as a birth right, regardless of how adeptly they drive! The point is - 'I' am a flawless driver 'others' are approaching 'brake-down'!!!Aradhana Ray Vermanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12868825207833035445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501883.post-84313195179311355442006-10-20T11:05:00.000+05:302006-10-20T11:05:00.000+05:30just like the philippines eh, guru?just like the philippines eh, guru?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16770869361002115209noreply@blogger.com
