Instead of this fine & sensible auto driver, what if he had been an arrogant madcap & confronted you with filthy language & cursed your 'relatives' & then demanded an outrageous amount or even tried beating you up ? What would you have done ? You know very well that there are umpteen number of aggressive arrogant rowdies as auto drivers.

I was put in an auto and i directed them to my family doctor's clinic. The guy paid for everything and even called me regularly for a few weeks to check if i was ok. |
That is a sweet experience & as you would know by now a very rare experience too.
