Honk/Horn Language Proposal for Federal Union of India

Bheema.Upadhyaya - 5-OCT-2012

After practising driving for more than 15 years and experimenting with DD, I feel honking is part of life, though I use this "feature" sparingly. But seeing other folks who restlessly honk in this crowded world of India, may I propose a new honking code language specific to India. Something similar to ASCII, morse codes? 

APAD - Non-Lane driving - Result declared

Bheema.Upadhyaya - 11-MAR-2011

 Location: NICE Road(Is that right name, or free-ad for Kheni saab?) , Hosur Road Junction(Clover Leaf), E-City Phase 1

Time: 11-Mar-2011 @8.25am

There is no need of explanation. We were blocked because of this accident. Perfect result of non-lane driving. Both drivers should win award(???) for non-lane driving. Police was busy in "negotiating" with parties.

Most annoying driver behaviours

Taking off from the APAD and DDC campaigns, I thought I'll try to note down the most annoying driver behavious that I keep coming across on an almost everyday basis. Here's my list, which may not be quite exhaustive, but which is generally in the order of annoyance to me:

Stickers sent to first 25 DDC Pledgers

Bheema.Upadhyaya - 29-JAN-2011

 Thanks DDC Pledgers,

First 25 pledged members have been sent DDC stickers. We know stickers are not so user friendly for pasting in car bumber. You may find little difficult, please bear with that. 

1) Ensure that you practice disciplined driving else your sticker will be like any other fancy sticker. 

Following Driving Discipline

ranga - 26-JAN-2011

This may sound as  Repetition, but it is the way people are in Bangalore. Most of the vehicles today either it is Two Wheeler / Four Wheeler or the public transport BMTC / Auto's don't follow lane discipline.

Some myths about disciplined driving/drivers

 I was thinking to clarify certain points to people who wanted to join DDC, just to clarify about myths/ wrong beliefs/feelings they might have come across.

My experiments with lane driving

Bheema.Upadhyaya - 10-NOV-2010

After we saw good inputs on this post , I was really interested how would it really look like if some one practised lane driving. So I have given a try in my own way in Hosur Road, which has now clearly marked 3 lanes from Silk Board to Electronic City.
