    10 years back most people used two wheelers. At that time, even those who had cars only used them on weekends.

    Now, everyone wants a car.

    Soon the Nano will hit the roads. Being a cheap car, it will find a lot of buyers.

    Imagine what will be the situation 20 years from now...:eek:.

    Only solution is to make cars so expensive that only the super-rich can afford them and encourage people to use two wheelers/public transport.

    Well This is a not a huge traffic which we face, I guess this video is early morning hours. Just come here after 11 Am in big City you will see real traffic just like DP's traffic, sometime you need 10-15 min to cross roads.:D

    IMO, the transportation infrustructure is not developed in India which lead to traffic chaos .

    I know this movie for some time now. Pretty impressive actually.

    We always use this movie to show drivers from our country what means true respect between different traffic participants, mostly respect and understanding for the 2 wheelers users, like bicyclists, scooters and bikers.

    Would it look the same even in the presence of wayward cows on the streets?

    I share the thoughts of many people who have said this is a normal traffic situation in India. However, the title of this video is a bit wrong.. because there are lots of accidents caused everyday due to such bad conditions.

    This is a great concern and even the bigger concern is that most of us have accepted it as such and we do not do much as to improve it. The government is ignorant and so have we learnt to be. Most people on this forum would accept the fact that when we go driving on the roads we do break traffic rules. And the reason is simple because we want to reduce the time being on these risky, noisy and chaotic roads.

    If one of those people was an American driving, they would lose their head and start a huge pileup
