[arabiantxn]

That ride seems such a blast ! i am happy you had good times and enjoyed your self

[tinuviel228]

hahahaha... the driver was cute... "How is my India?"...but in India they are called auto rickshaws or just auto... or even just rickhaw I guess :)

[rangeyrover]

Well, it was my girlfriend that called them tuk-tuks, and she says that in new zealand they are called tuk-tuks (from the noise of the 2-stroke engines) Friends tell me they are called tuk-tuks in thailand too?!

[dantrenner]

Can I ask you: I live in India and have never heard them called Tuk Tuk's. We call them Auto's or Auto Rickshaws. ???

[vyasthearse]

Hey rangey,

How much did he charge?? I am a hyderabadi...and I really want to know what you paid for that ride??

[rangeyrover]

I "think" I paid about 150 rupees.

I was certainly overcharged! In all the time in Hyderabad, I only saw the meter used once, which is when I came back from IT City to the lake, and it cost about 100 rupees. The only reason the meter went on was because some indian friends I was with made him...

[rangeyrover]

I did learn to haggle later on, and you can get the journey price down.

To be honest though, I would try and pick the best kept Tuk-Tuk and driver, so that there was a chance I would make it to my destination without breakdown. Old Tuk-Tuk's do not like a heavy Englishman on board....

[arabiantxn]

LoL

[nainagurl89]

i really want to ride this thing :)

[gianthamsandwich]

That pushed my heart rate up 50%, that is just nuts.

Does the tuk tuk have turn signals, or is it just aimed and hope for the best?

Great video, I watched it twice.

[rangeyrover]

they do have turn signal on the new ones...

This wasn't new....

LOL Might is right in India, so bikes and motorbikes give way, nothing larger does.

[SBha30]

Wow, who would of ever guessed that you can use a bike as a family minivan. Great video!

[BenJabituya]

I once lived in Hyderabad!

[pierce2005]

I am from hyderabad and this past summer,in all honesty, i saw a family of SIX on one motorbike. LOL.

[suryathesun]
