Because we're discussing stuff about people stuffing stuff on their motorcycles, here's a pic View attachment 165031
That's one heck of a tyre upsizing! :lol!:
balarshnan what are those things that they have on their motorcycles ??
I think those are foldable table frames they got on rent for some function and moving it to some place. Table tops must be on their way in another moped [:D].

In BLR, I come across this situ soooooo often, when the road is wide enough for an two side-by-side vehicles. The Auto or 4W or Tempo is parked nicely without any worries on the choke it is creating. You have to wait till the guy makes a right turn.

If the driver of the parked vehicle applies a bit of mind, he could park 30m or so away from the junction, but he normally won't. Even when they see the bottleneck created, they just don't care. Today evening it happened; when I signalled the Auto to move away, he pretended not to see me. Only on Indian Roads !

Today my dad saw a group of Shoguns (around 20!!![:D]) doing a wheelie uniformly on Beach road, Chennai (yes, public vehicles were there) at 10 am[frustration]
And the funniest thing here is, the Police saw them but they were attracted by the paint quality of the bikes, Only On Indian Roads, OOIR !!!

Well, very common in Kanpur as well! Parking near the junction gets them easily more travelers. Can't see any way of convincing not to do such parking!

Honk so the Auto realises he is parked in the wrong place but the underlying problem is lack of proper (or really any long term) town & road planning in most cities in India most of these till a few years back qualified as towns frankly.
