Mumbai Traffic

What to mention....Mumbai traffic is pathetic...to cover 13km it might take anywhere between 1 - 2 hrs...
Today an interesting episode happpened while I was commuting to office. The normal way of driving in Mumbai is not to obey any traffic rules, except when the cop is watching. Today one Santro guy was taking his car through a taraffic block and by doing that scratched the rear view mirrors of multiple car including Joysans and he drove past all of us very quickly so no one could do a thing.
Then within half a km, he got stuck in another block. My driver wanted to go after him, but I stopped him. Then another driver came out of his car and ran towards this guy, opened his door....and...i thought he was going to hit him....instead he forcefully took the speedy guys car keys and ran back...wow...the speedy guy was stuck with his car in the middle of the busy road with no keys...
What a way to protest...he finally got his keys after apologizing....
