hi rav... he managed to rip it through 2nd and 3rd with 5 of us in the back, 2 in the front passenger seat .. lol then back into the crazyness... ....
next time im taking ear plugs... beep beep beep beep was all i was hearing 24/7.. if you can drive over there you can drive anywhere..

LOL, i remeber the Horns, all day and all night

I know they've built a new highway from Punjab to Dehli, 4 lanes from what i can remeber, should have taken it on there.

the hi-way... yeah right... there still building it.. from philuar to delhi took us 8.5 hrs with all the traffic and fog/dust, at one point we were down to 15mph...... we left at 2130hrs and got to delhi airport at 6am.. our driver was my mates brother in law.. and he was a very good driver at that... even he said thats the worst he had seen it!
the funny thing is that my brother caused an accident whilst standing still... two guys on a bike were starring at the "gora"(white person) and failed to see the car slowing down in front of them.. both were ok mind..
