  • Road safety is a problem in many countries. Over 1.1 million deaths a year, with half of them vulnerable road users -- pedestrians, bicyclists, and motor scooters.

    ASIRT -- the Association for Safe International Road Travel -- is a good source of information for road safety conditions in different countries.

  • This problem is coused by police who are there to take money LONG LIVE ANNA HAZARE.

  • @mightyali Just because a person is from India, or defends it, doesnt mean that they are a Hindu. And no, Hindus don't worship cows.

  • @SuperPaki4lyfe Wow, look who’s talking. You fucking terrorist. Everyone in the world hates Muslims and Pakistanis. People in India dont eat rats and dont drink urine. You come from a TERRORIST country and NO ONE likes you. they HATE you.

    After we killed Bin Laden, you guys were angy towards us. We did you a favor. He was in your back yard and you didnt "find" him. Your government was probably hiding him. That is the real inside job.

    Pakistan= country that hid the world's most wanted man

  • When visiting, we noticed some of the highway exits are unlabeled from the local roads. In America, at the end of a highway exit, it says "Do Not Enter". So, you know which is the highway "entrance" and which is the highway "exit". A few times we entered the highway through the exit ramp because there weren't any signs.

  • THIS IS D BIGEEST PROBLEM WE R SUFFERRING NOW, DIS DEPENDS UPON D DEVELOPMENT IN D STATES , BECASUE D DEVELOPMENT IS UNEQUAL ALL OVER INDIA, SO D RULES R ALSO FOLLOWED ONLY IN THOSE STATES WHICH R DEVELOPED! ND HAVE A PROPER SYSTEM!

  • I always ask my brother to help cross when im in India!!!!

  • this is impossible to change.its the attitude and we're talking about one billion of people..welcome to india

  • @newday4fun Agreed, although this video explains why they drive like that over here too. The horn & the random lane changes without signal , not to mention the 5 lanes made out of 3 lanes seems insane.

  • @redfootwalking you may be good at it, but the guy driving an suv right at you may not.
