The event blogs are striking enough to have a feel of the event, so, I would like to have a little chit-chat on your blogging interests. And even we are coming up with an event on startups on June 6th in Bangalore. So, can I have your contact details? Looking forward to hear from you.

Its a very monotonous job for them but Indians do need to learn to follow the rules. There won't be any traffic jams if we do.

Nice one ! Guess how I got my 4 wheeler license! The instructor asked me drive on a straight road, almost 500m and then said, im through.

We almost <b>never</b> agree upon anything. :D Anyway, as you said, only the DL does not reduce the whole traffic situation. Have you ever heard of J-walking? It's an offense in the US of A. But here, it is the birth-right of every Indian to walk on the roads as if all the world is ours and not a damn thing can be done by others. But wait, does it all stop there? Noooope. :) <i>Pedestrians</i> and oh wait, <i>Roadside Vendors</i> want the road to be made a no-vehicle zone. So that they can pee, crap and do whatever it is they want to on the fucking streets itself. I think my use of such foul language emphasizes the fact that I <b>Narrowly</b> escaped from a major road accident very recently. :) Ah how I would like to agree to all that you have said in this post. :) But I guess we both know we cant.
