Until 2018 there wasn’t a single Driving Manual in India 🇮🇳!
Generations of Indians grew up driving without knowing any rules because there was no book on the subject. Hence, the chaos on our roads.
Malcolm & I worked hard to fix that huge gap. Today you have a choice of books vs online courses, in multiple languages.
Test drive one today.

Very unfortunate,
there seems to be sort of a sidewalk, but the couple were walking on the main road!
Why?
#WATCH | An elderly couple was seriously injured after a woman driver rammed her car into them in Delhi’s Kirti Nagar.

The level of ignorance about basic Road rules in our country is really pathetic.
This woman tried to cut into the toll lane at the last minute and got hit by the truck and she’s blaming the truck. 🤦🏽♂️.
I hate these kind of drivers who bypass the line, Go all the way forward and try to squeeze in at the last minute. It serves her right. I hope the police also impose a Challan on her.

Per Google, there are about 25,000 traffic cops in the greater Hyderabad area.
At any point about 10,000 to 15,000may be on active duty.
There are about 90,00,000 vehicles in this area (90 lakh)
So that’s about one cop for every 600 vehicles
If you think enforcement is the solution to improving our Traffic -do the math, it will never happen.
We the public have to be self disciplined if we want to see a change on the Roads.

RT @Abbywillia69841: I dropped my daughter off at a sleepover and went home to finish some work.
Around 11pm, she texted me: "Dad, did you…

This appears to be a case of hydroplaning.
He took the curve at a very high speed on a wet road & skidded out of control.
Slowdown on wet roads, especially at curves

As a victim of this scam, I can attest to it.
KIMS Begumpet Doctor discharged me at 11 AM. @HDFCERGOGIC paid 33% of the bill.
After multiple calls and escalations, all from my hospital bed in my post operative pain I gave up. I paid the difference and went home at 7 PM.
After much drama, HDFC reimbursed me a month later.
I feel it’s better off, putting some money aside for a surgery, than subject yourself to this torture and indignation.
Cashless health insurance is legally sanctioned house arrest.
The doctor officially discharges you at 9 AM. You are fully recovered, your bags are packed and your family is ready to take you home.
Then the hospital administration steps in: "Sir, the insurance TPA approval is pending. Please remain seated in your room until we receive the final payment."
You then spend the next 8 to 12 hours held hostage in a ₹15,000-a-day hospital room.
You are no longer a patient but you are collateral. The hospital doesn't trust the insurance company to actually pay, the insurer is deliberately stalling to find a typo in your medical history to reject the claim and you are stuck in the middle of a corporate standoff.
We live in a country where UPI settles transactions in 300 milliseconds and automated trading algorithms move crores in a microsecond.
The system is designed to exhaust you. They want you so frustrated and desperate to go home that the next time you get sick, you just pay the cash upfront and file for a reimbursement which they will conveniently reject 45 days later citing "insufficient documentation."
If my policy is active and the hospital is in-network, the final discharge should be an instant and automated API settlement. Man I paid insurance company for this service.
Until we force insurers to adopt automated clearing, stop calling it a cashless facility.
Call it what it actually is: an extortion racket with a waiting room.

What manner of festival are we celebrating where 13 people died.
Loud DJ's with filmi music, youth dancing on moving trucks. POP painted idols immersed in water bodies.
As a society we need to introspect if this is godly...
Telangana Ganesh immersions leave 13 dead: DGP
Thirteen people, including a sub-inspector, died during Ganesh idol immersion-related incidents across Telangana, while 26 others were injured, Director General of Police C V Anand said.
The DGP said the deaths and injuries occurred during the 10-day Ganesh festivities across the state.
A total of 1.24 lakh Ganesh idols were registered at public places across Telangana, Anand said.
He added that another 3.5 lakh to 4 lakh idols were installed in homes, gated communities and apartments across the state and were immersed respectively.

Making a SAFE U-turn on divided carriageway:
*Please stay in right most lane, with right indicator.
*Check mirror to make sure some distracted driver is not coming behind you in full speed.
*Don't overtake vehicle in front from left side to make U-turn. FORM SINGLE line.
*Wait in safe space at break-in-median for a gap in oncoming traffic.
Then make the U-turn.

(Borrowed from Instagram).
This kind of impatience is senseless.
If a large vehicle is trying to reverse, please give it sufficient space and time, to complete its manoeuver.

So inhumane of that biker who hit the sub inspector on tank bund road and escaped. The cop came from Bhadradri Kothagudem district , for police bandobust and was posted near Tank bund.
He and his colleagues were on duty and while crossing the road last night , a biker with a pillion hit him. The cop fell on his head and was shifted to a private hospital. Basic check was done thinking it is a minor injury. He left to his hometown only to know that he suffered a brain haemorrhage. He died! He was 57! Wondering why no scan was done to know if there were an internal injury?
My thoughts are with his family.
During any bondobust be kind to those on duty. They have been standing for hours, many don’t get leave for weeks, no sleep, tired to the core. JUST BE KIND!

There are some aspects of our culture, I am ashamed of.
this is one of them.
Ganesh Drowning Festival in St. Louis, Missouri. Telugus drown a toxic paint life size Ganesh trinket into the River. Sridevi Thota also drowns her personal Ganesh doll for izzat points. Ganesh truck caravans. Treating our waters like your personal Ganges is not okay #publicvideo

I realised my two employees, my Driver and my cook/maid/housekeeper don’t have any pension /provident fund.
So I made a small beginning by opening a Kisan Vikas Patra for Rs.25,000 for each which will double in 10 years. I’m thinking I’ll contribute this same amount once every year.
If you got some loyal employees, think about a small investment for their retirement. Even 10,000 is a start.
It will give them some financial support in their old age.

I know this is an alien concept in India because no car stops for a pedestrian…
Maybe this is a generational thing, but if I’m walking through a parking lot and a car stops to let me cross, I pick up the pace a little. I’m not strolling across like I own the place. They waited for me. I can show a little respect back.
