And trust me, rickshaws are absolutely NOT a solution... Still haven't figured out how the meters work there. Got fleeced royally by the rickshaw-wallahs. And came back feeling grateful for Bombay's public transport.~j~https://www.blogger.com/profile/01545750271574664978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10004556.post-1151742217386432512006-07-01T03:23:00.000-05:002006-07-01T03:23:00.000-05:00I certainly know for sure that u like car pooling ...I certainly know for sure that u like car pooling or bike pooling, having done the driving job here :p <BR/><BR/>but u must appreciate that these ppl are getting financially independent n driving one's own car is probably one of the ways they choose to flaunt their new found wealth!!Mukundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01414814671486239212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10004556.post-1151674997475262642006-06-30T08:43:00.000-05:002006-06-30T08:43:00.000-05:00Sorry, Am one of those sitting in a Santro and cur...Sorry, Am one of those sitting in a Santro and cursing the traffic. In Mumbai though, not Bangalore. Where using your own car is actually cheaper than a rickshaw or a taxi.

I know how much I've thought about buying a car... and how many times I merely have to take one look at the traffic on the roads and decide that even using BMTC would be better than owning a car! :-)Raagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14736416344880614248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10004556.post-1151396737204459302006-06-27T03:25:00.000-05:002006-06-27T03:25:00.000-05:00Good point...just that there's the issue of gettin...Good point...just that there's the issue of getting along with the person(s) in the car, and not back-seat driving! I know ppl who set out car-pooling with good intentions, and can't agree on anything anymore :P And then, fuel prices seem worth the peace of mind...<BR/><BR/>Erm, peace of mind relatively.^..^,,,~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07601113854539142051noreply@blogger.com
