Another One from the Morning Commute

Posted on May 4, 2010
Too many people in a mini truck
Too Many!

I have become lazy about clicking pictures on the road. But this one was so crowded I had to click. I wonder how far they were going like this!

    This is a very common sight here too . As very few buses ply from remote villages this kind of travel is the only option.. But not jam packed. there would be enough space for people to breathe.

    such sights are common in most rural areas… its just the vehicle which changes from area to area…….

    If they dont have any other means to travel, who could blame them. I think its the local government who should be blamed.

    Btw, thank you very much for visiting and your suggestion was taken on board.

    Photo was taken early morning at Poole Harbour, Dorset, UK. ( I guess that will do for now)

      Dave thank you very much. I have seen a little bit of UK and minus the cold I like it a lot.

    Chitra this was on a route that has connectivity but then once in a while we get to see something like this.

    No Tarun this is right in the middle of Gurgaon or maybe you will consider that 50km away from Delhi? 😀

    Ramesh I have never been on a Mumbai local till date!

    Anu but this was on the way to my office!

    Ramesh I thought you just had steam for lunch, glad to know it was otherwise!
