Traffic of Mumbai
Mumbai a city that has one of the most busiest traffic around the world. Commuting through the traffic of Mumbai is a challenge and its dangerous. People not following rules, the errant auto rickshaws and most dangerous, bike riders. Even the best buses are manoeuvred in a rough way by the drivers.
In all this what comes to our mind is how to be safe. Being safe in Mumbai traffic requires skill. My experience says its a battle field. You have to be tough, alert and always on the toes to be safe.
If you follow traffic rules you will be the one to be at the receiving end. So always try to be with flow. Keep honking to alert others that even you are there.
Improve your judgement when driving a four wheeler. If you are a women I guarantee these men will drive roughly to show inferiority complex to you. Don't be scared and give a strong reply. Learn the art of driving roughly against these idiots. Try to keep away from them and change your lane.

Drive safely when you spot a racing bike. Don't get into a conflict with them. Just ignore them. Drive at a constant speed. He will never race with you because he is only interested in whisking away. If you get in a conflict you can collide with him and definitely create problem for yourself. So simply be cool but don't let him be dominate you on Road.
Where your seat belts, where your helmets and try to follow basic rules. Speed kills. Dont stunt on it. Have a good driving skill set but then improve your safety standards. While taking turns keep attention on your mirrors and check for hazards.
More importantly don't Drink and drive. Boozing takes you away from consciousness and you drive without your judgement which can be dangerous for yourself and others. Remember driving has to be safe for others and yourself. That's the sign of a good driver.
These simple rules will keep you safe and good. Use Apps like Ridlr and Google maps and get an estimate of traffic level present on your route.
This prepares you well in advance about the traffic situation and will help you in keeping cool.
Drive safely
जागते राहो हो ना हो
नझर हाती दुर्गात्ना गती .
