its just the understanding between people, telepathy

[jalexrosh]

Its because everyone is a stunt driver and they are shooting a movie on the street continuously called "Bangalore Traffic roulette"

@avanakkan The magic of the horn.

Non of these are accidents. All of them were preventable, if people had follow basic traffic rules. In India, every venture on the road is a accident waiting to happen. Indians have no sense of right-of-way or yield. It is not just in traffic matters, rather in every walk of life. Indians never wait for their rightful turn.

I've come to think that it's because we use the horn a lot, you can't see 360 degs... but sure can hear your surrounding and react? and this is not just in that city, its all over the damn subcontinent! Well at least it's peaceful out here in the rural areas.

Please dont say things like how is India going to be a super-power with this chaos and all such stuff...Come to think of this-Inspite of all such chaos we are moving ahead like no other nation...Where else can you see people surviving in such chaos??Will the people of any other nation be able to put their city on the world-map inspite of having such problems??The answer is no,but we Bangaloreans have done it and we are proud of succeeding inspite of the hurdles faced by us everyday...

we got rules... most ppl feel that rules are more a suggestion than what shld be followed... its gettin worse now... i feel there should be more discretion when certifying drivers and riders....
