Senapati Bapat Road · Pune, 411053 India
Traffic in India is manic - this was taken from my hotel room on the first visit. I read this from an article on line, I can find of identify with this as I had my first traffic accident on this visit, skidding across a busy intersection at night after coming off a bike:
"Despite having fewer people and fewer cars than neighboring China, India's law enforcement is abysmal when it comes to enforcing traffic laws, leading to a state of daily, banal chaos on India's roads. Traffic deaths in other emerging markets have either declined (as in China's case) or stabilized, while India's traffic deaths have leapt 40% in five years. The last year for which numbers are available is 2008, when 118,000 people were killed."
That is just crazy! It might be safer flying than driving there....
