The Indian Pedestrian

THE INDIAN PEDESTRIAN

One day I was on the way back from a basketball game on my scooter..

Take this picture......add a dragon oil sticker on the top of the aviator badge....and there's my scooter........anyways on the way I met a buddy of mine who wanted me to catch up with him...Took me to go to 60km/hr to catch up to him....(60km/hr ain't that much....but then again it's a scooter not a freaking CBR)...suddenly.....A wild drunk pedestrian jumps on to the road....we both slammed our brakes...but I didn't get lucky,the scooter slipped 

and rolled to the sidepath to become.....this!!!!

The stupid drunk man escaped and it left me thinking.....These people do not know how to cross roads.....

These pictures support my cause

The zebra crossing is invisible to us Indians.Even if its  only 3 meters away.....we would not use it..being a driver...you simply cannot take your eyes off the road...and if an accident happens....they block the whole road....the vehicle would be left on the road and the people fighting over it.....even strangers who were just watching it pick sides and fight.....and you'll be running late for work and the last thing you need is this

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE??

It would have made sense if they moved their car to the side of the road and discuss about this peacefully....But no.....If  my car's been hit...I'm gonna make hell for the others is something that should be stopped.....But then the police comes and clears it out.....The worst you can expect is this

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A congested road and then a strike....WHY!!!!!!.....And there's a strike for every silly reason you can think of......Onion prices hiked by Rs 2 per kg?Strike!!!Why do we Indians cause loss for every silly reason.......And In my place,Kerala....There's a Strike day every week or two!!

Due to this....every Indian automobile has a dent or a scratch...(if you find one that doesn't....it's new)..I'm talking of Land Rovers,Beemers,Jaguars,you name it,it has a dent or a scratch

Please people co-operate........Unless you're on a deathwish.......I wish I could have ran over that drunk guy's feet...that would have taught him a lesson or two.....
