Transportation in India
Via Desipundit : Flickr photos of transportation modes in India. Nice photoset. This brings back memories of childhood days when my parents used to shovel me and my sister around the place on a scooter. Count the number of helments and divide by the number of people.

The cycle rickshaws and mopeds and scooters bring back a lot of memories. Not to leave out Premier Padminis and Ambassadors.
Sameer, remember how 7-8 of us would pile on your Maruti 800 to go for Natural Ice Cream in Bombay. Memory is a harsh mistress - no ice cream can ever be as tasty as that for me ….. sigh …

I think we got in 8 at one point. Shantanu had to lie down on top of the 4 others in the back seat. Those were the days…

Yes, memories are forever, no one can take it back. I travelled a lot in India, and finally run a website IndiaTransit.com that provides information for free to passengers.
Bus services from APSRTC, KSRTC and from other major providers is available for free.
Thanks,
