Indian humour...

This road sign is clearly an attempt at humour. The main thing we've noticed about India so far, more than anything else, is that they absolutely love their car horn. If the person in front slows down, beep your horn. If you're bored of waiting for the lights to change, beep your horn. If there is a lot of traffic on the road in your way, simply drive as you would if there was no-one else on the road, keeping your hand on the horn at all times.

Perhaps one day someone will explain to the locals that constantly pressing the horn makes the thing completely useless...everyone - drivers, cyclists and pedestrians - ignore it as the incessant sound of car horns is a constant...

And the other humourous thing is the taxi meter thing on the taxis here (also in the photo). No one thought that prices might go up when the taxis had meters put on...now there is a booklet that tells you how many times more than the meter you need to pay given that there has been a fair bit of inflation since the meters began. Currently all prices must be multiplied by 13! We've tried to avoid this by simply getting the bus - at 5 pence per trip it's a bit of a bargain...
