Here along Chennai Bypass Road, a lone autorickshaw. That's not a site you see all that often in Chennai when the sun is out. Most of the time the roads are filled with the yellow and black, buzzy-sounding transport vehicles. You ought to see one of these 3-wheeled vehicles lose traction in the rain. It's a very scary site! If you are a foreigner coming to Chennai, either have someone who is local negotiate your fare, get savvy with your super bargaining skills or pay at least 3 times the price of the ride!
India looks such an amazing place to visit.
ReplyDeleteThough I once worked in Chennai as newsman for 11 years I dreaded the thought of dealing with auto-men. When my car went for servicing or repair I preferred to walk the 3 km to office.
ReplyDeleteOn a different note, I see you have a nice Chennai blog here. Reminds me of a Mysore blog I used to run till a few weeks back - http://mymysore.wordpress.com/
Fascinating mode of transportation!
