AUTO RICKSHAW!!

An auto rickshaw or three-wheeler (tuk-tuk, trishaw, auto, rick, autorick, or rickshaw in popular parlance) is a motor vehicle and a mode of transport for private use and as a vehicle for hire. It is a motorized version of the traditional rickshaw or velotaxi, a small three-wheeled cart operated by a single individual, and is related to the cabin cycle. Auto rickshaws can be found in many Asian countries such as Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Laos, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Thailand as well as some African countries such as Ethiopia and in some parts of Egypt.

It's a small trishaw-like of motorbike coming with small size and able to squeeze into a little space of road fully congested with various types of transports..haha well this is one of its little abilities. =)

Is it comfortable for travelling?

I would give a NO haha.

We experienced numerous times of having BACK ACHE and MUSCLE PAIN and even BLUISH-GREEN BRUISES after taking an auto ride! It is taking my life each and every time by auto!

haha.

a little bit exaggerating but somehow it's true.

but still,

I have to venture cause this is our only way to get out of my hostel!

perhaps, I should opt for a bus next time.

Is the fares reasonable?

no.No.NO!

the fares are always changing, and in increasing trend!

revised auto fares are never been highlighted.

probably due to our skin colour, the auto drivers would love to charge us extra >.<

omg they don even care our pretty appearance! haha i'm soo narcissistic =P

nevermind. the world is always unfair. i should be considerate. haha.

still

I hate the moments when we start bargaining for a standard fare =(

they are just so ridiculous, some drivers are even conspire to cheat us

by insisting the higher fare they offer

which they may think it will tremble us and agree with their offer

some drivers even worse,they will warn the other drivers who fetch us

what a selfish act!!

nevermind. the world is always unfair. i should be considerate. haha.

Have you seen animals compete for territory?

animals like birds and mammals regard a specific territory as its own and which it defends when other animals try to enter it.

haha.well, this sounds familiar to me. especially to those auto drivers.

they are just behave like 'those animals'

when we are trying to get a pass-by auto, the other auto driver will stop him from fetching us

WHY?

he claims the territory is his

so that's why other people cannot 'steal' his business

and that's how and what animal do, to defend their land for food

uhh, since when we have becoming victims??

nevermind. the world is always unfair. i should be considerate. haha.

so, becareful with auto driver. they are treacherous at times.

all in all ,this is an especial and unique transportation which could only found in India.

i should be grateful that i have a chance of a life time to experience it. hehe.

nevertheless, It's quite fun going out with an auto.
