Between the devil and ...
I cannot decide what frustrates me more: A maverick auto or one of those black and yellow contraptions loudly falling apart at every bolt, proceeding (?) at about zero kmph, when you have to keep time.
With the former, you are hanging on for dear life, while with the latter, you are tempted to jump off and walk to where you have to go, simply because in your shaken body, mind and soul, you know you can get there first.
this is very true. this travelling at 0kmph is all the more frustrating when ur vehicle is behind it and these fellows won't even give u way!

I would totally prefer the speed demon auto! Think of the mental agony you go through when you see cyclists overtaking you, while you trudge along in your rickety excuse for an auto!UGH!

In a mood for some Ratna Cafe Sambar? I am coming over to Madras next weekend (for a month). If u have some time, I can buy you some Idly Sambar in return for the Bacardi Spritzer that you promised me long time back :-)
Jokes apart, I am trying to see if any of you guys would be around during that time. If you would have some time, let me know and we can all probably meet somewhere. My email id is anandvis(at)gmail(dot)com

You know when you'll get the auto which stops dead every two minutes - JUST on the occasion that you need to get somewhere in a hurry :) And he will insist "oru minute madam, ippo start aayidum", thereby preventing you from hailing another auto that actually moves. *sigh*
By the way, why auto? Car enga?

Driving an auto rickshaw can also be frustrating ;-) Especially when the driver aspires to drive a Merc!
