This is typical of Indian mentality and Indian driving. No use of talking about sense and all that. As soon as you see the slightest gap ahead of you, try and get at least a millimeter of your vehicle into that ![]() What happens after that? Will I be able to complete this action without any hassle? Will I cause any trouble to anyone else because of this action? Any other potential mistake that can happen by quickly scanning the surrounding traffic condition? ![]() |

I have to say - Would have expected you to stop, look and then proceed. I don't believe you gave yourself that chance to properly assess if there was a potential hazard. Especially since there was a car parked on the corner. This is not taking away the fact the the driver of the black car was no to blame. |

Yes I should have been driving even slower while negotiating the turn but one doesn't expect such ridiculous overtaking inside a residential colony area, that too with a solid line dividing the road. | |

![]() Yes, if you change it makes a difference, if only from the self-preservation point of view. | |

| ![]() Parked his Swift DZire at the left of the Freeway from Chembur to Town. Got out and started taking pics of the factories at Wadala. Another beamer driving like a NASCAR event. Avoided ramming into the DZire by a whisker. Both at fault. But the real issue is when do such people learn? |

I thought they put a prominent notice on the windscreen when Wheel Clamp Lock is used. I have seen few times Bengaluru Traffic Police putting the notice for the driver on the windscreen. | ||

Forget the notice, some clamps do not even have a number that the offenders could call on and request the police to come and collect the fine; And of course, unlock the wheel! But that warning on the windshield is a good step. I could plant this idea into a cop's mind the next time I see him use the tool ![]() | |

Two observations. 1. A lot of cities have free left turn with no way of knowing if this particular one has a red signal for left turn also or not. 2. The traffic police needs to turn on that green signal for the left turn s bit longer. I could not see any reason for it to be red when all the opposite lane had their green signal on and there was no barrier to all those vehicles coming from behind you and taking that false left turn. |
