BHPian Surya_bh00<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n Yesterday, I drove from Pune to Bangalore and it has been some time since I have been on the highways.<\/p>\n Overall it is quite depressing to drive and witness how drivers abuse, violate every rule in the book and have no concern for the safety of others, forget about themselves.<\/p>\n Here’s what BHPian sumukha<\/strong> had to say about the matter:<\/p>\n I totally agree. Had a similar experience yesterday. Driving on Bengaluru Mysore highway in my BMW 730 ld, following strictly the 100-80-60 Kms speed limit looked so foolish when even smaller vehicles like Maruti zipped fast doing 120+. Some even looked back at me while overtaking and grinning. No one was maintaining lane discipline. No signal while changing lanes.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Here’s what BHPian shankar.balan<\/strong> had to say about the matter:<\/p>\n Just a mere step away from Anarchy.<\/p>\n I’m pretty sure the truck drivers cannot read the signs saying “keep left”. Also, they can\u2019t keep left because there is always someone or something blocking the way.<\/p>\n What to do. I think, in India, at least, we just have to live with it. We are a notoriously indisciplined lot. Coupled with a wonderful sense of \u2018entitlement\u2019. No way things are going to change in a hurry here.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\nMy observations:<\/h2>\n
