No bad roads, only indisciplined drivers - Team-BHP

Ram · 30th August 2007, 06:38

Here are a pair of Poland registered Japanese SUVs, somewhere in continental Europe -- a Nissan and a Suzuki.

Interestingly, the short wheelbase Suzuki 4x4 (I won't call it a Vitara. Sidekick may be more apt) sports a bumper-sticker comment in Marathi!

It says, "Back 'there', they don't have bad roads, only indisciplined drivers"

Can you write that in marathi (meaning using english letters offcourse)

That's the actual marathi letters.

While what is said, is partially true (50% of the problem is bad drivers and the remaining 50% is tar connected pot-holes

), I think a sticker with the Indian flag next to it is in bad taste.

I agree, that sucks. I didn't get his point of writing this in Marathi on a car driven in Europe either

hehehe,.... the flag is for the patriotism in the right spirit, no one will understand a full saffron flag with a V-cut in Poland!!

then,... the idea of writing in marathi will be understood by you only if you are married to a maharashtrian like me

it is cultist; but natural.

absolutely no offences meant. i'm a part of it now,... renounced my state altogether.

P.S.: mods can please remove my post if it starts a riot

completely agreed and i remember reading this somewhere, the best safety feature in a car is "THE DRIVER", and human errors are the cause of the fatal accidents many a time, now i remember it was in the buggati veyron's accident blog!

kudos to the man to have that sticker on the suv, jai maharastra jai HIND!

I dont find anything wrong with that sticker. It's true. More than our roads, our attitude on them sucks.
