3. The roofs of the houses are usually flat - there was dried laundry, fruit and more. All residential architecture is created based on maximum use of every scrap of space
4. For this reason, the Indians have traditionally used the road for their needs. They dried corn
5. Or Fig. Machinery, passing over rice, and at the same time it threshed
6. No such situation is not disturbed - if you live in an overpopulated country, want-not, you learn tolerance for one's neighbor. Well, if the rice or peas wrapped around the bridge - then immediately help resolve the problem
7. On the roads are the street performers
8. They are part of the demonstration of political parties
9. In general, the first time there is a feeling that is not going on the road, and for some large apartment

13. Vehicles are mainly domestic, the production company «Tata motors» - from trucks
14. Truck drivers often decorate the mud flaps such pictures here
15. Before the king of Indian roads, scooter "tuktuk»
16. This tuktuku Indians ever put up a monument, and it is well deserved. An inexpensive, unpretentious, economical (diesel!) - A real working ishachok which transports everything - from passengers

24. The serpent is also missing (Background - my machine «Tata-sumo»)
25. Highways are built and maintained by the State and the State of
26. Rural roads - by the population
27. In general, nervous people on Indian roads is nothing. If in front of you on the road cart or truck slowly crawling, you obbibikaysya though, things change
28. Most ambush, if you meet risovoz (more precisely, a truck carrying rice chaff) - but not on the track, but on a narrow rural road - try, ahead of the hamster:
29. The same is true if a meeting with the herd - stand and wait until they pass over you. And in general, it is best to try to understand this country (even though it is fully impossible), imbued with its spirit, then it becomes not difficult.

36. In general, Indian mechanics - it's something. In my opinion, they are the fingers that they can safely and without tools to work with. Therefore, they have the technique works and the wear, is already on the molecule begins to crumble
37. Traffic Inspectors machines just do not stop (except for raids on verifying payment of road taxes, there could inhibit all in a row)
