Sad but accidents do happen. Parking and gas fillups are best left to chauffeurs.

Anyway once in Kolkata, on the EM byepass, I had overtaken a state bus and a few hundred feet from that point a signal was green. By the time I reached to about 100 feet the signal turned red and I started decelerating and stopped behind the stop line. This is when I noticed the bus I had overtaken was coming in at breakneck speed and trying to avoid hitting my Fiat from behind. I rolled the car forward and out of way and the bus made thru the intersection on a red light. The cop on duty caught me for having violated the stop line. But he did not know what he was getting into.
