| ![]() Damn Bikers! When will they ever learn, their life should be important to themselves first. I feel it's become a moral responsibility of us to save them at all times. There is just so many things wrong in this video. Due to a pile up on the other side because of an ongoing flyover construction, most of the bikers have decided to take the wrong way. I kid you not this the NH 48 which connects MH to GJ. Rains + wrong way + fast lane, how long can you dodge an accident. |

![]() Fully agree. I feel like I am blind riding a bike without mirrors!. One day on my way to office, the right mirror on my Unicorn somehow loosened completely and almost fell. I stopped and tried my best to put it back in place (without any tools), but could not. I had to then remove it and place it my bag to get it fixed later in the evening when returning home. It was a horrible ride to office for around 12 kms as I have the habit of scanning surroundings every few seconds. I did not know where I was heading! It was another horrible ride for another 15 kms back to my regular mechanic who fixed in a jiffy. I can't believe my eyes if I see people who ride carefree without mirrors on bikes. And yeah! God and the others around have the responsibility to save their lives. | |

| ![]() Removing side/ rear view mirrors on 2-wheelers is fashion statement for most riders, whereas it should be other way round. The attitude of manufacturers is equally pathetic in this case as the side/ rear view mirrors are of poor or average quality on most bikes*, especially commuter bikes & scooters. These are only good for installation on bicycles/ cycle-rickshaws than faster rides IMO. The riders either fold these rattlers or throw these away. However, fixing these (albeit temporarily) is quite easy as one can just tighten a screw to make sure it doesn't shake or rattle. IMO there should be legislation like that for ugly saree guard to ensure riders don't discard these or render these useless while riding. |

| ![]() I am not sure if this fits in here, was he thinking Nexon is a boat to sail through? I may sound dumb, but I feel people should respect their vehicles. |

This is rural/sub-urban Sonipat (Haryana), and things on these roads have always been....sad. If we were to redefine 'sad' to mean 'deadly', of course. Last edited by N.A.GTC : 21st August 2020 at 14:30. | |

| ![]() They should respect water even more! Threat to car; threat to life. According to Nalin1, this was just a pleasure drive (for some contorted value of "pleasure" ![]() |
