My CECA friend tells me that Indians are the the best drivers in the world: no one obeys traffic lights, there are buses, lorries, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, bullock carts, cows, elephants, jaywalkers on the road all jostling with one another. You're always on high alert. (He himself once almost hit a cow which ambled right into his lane, causing him to swerve sharply.)
When you have driven on Indian roads, he says, driving in any other country is a piece of cake.
