Wheels means motion. Modern life means being on the wheels, very often. People are on the move! Took a few random shots from the balcony. Here are some common sights.
Life here on wheels....
An elderly couple.
Two in one shot.
The cyclist using a mobile phone!! Just an indication of how the cell phone has become ubiquitous. He stops over for his "urgent" conversation while a scooterist passes by with probably his motorcycle wheel being taken to or from repair -- great balancers we have here.
Family of four. The father looks at a bus overtaking hiis motorcycle. This is quite common till the kids grow taller. There will be 5 sometimes like this!! Have seen even six. I have done it too, now no space for the fourth. Time is closing in when there will be no space for even the third! There is a limit to the seat capacity, you know!
These young boys pedal away.
A luggage carrier taking bamboo poles.
I don't think I would trust my husband to drive a motorcycle with our whole family on it!! lol Not to mention, with no one wearing helmets! ....Makes me weak in the knees just thinking about it!
Great pictures Dinu! Thanks for posting them! :)
The protective headgear is compulsory, but you find people not sticking to rules and taking chances. That's life!
Thanks for sharing Dinu...when my eldest purchased a motorcycle just after my husband passed away, I don't think I slept while he was on the road..it's not so much those on the motorcycles, but others in cars...thank goodness he sold it..he has since he's been married several others, much to fast to suit this 'mom'...do the police not monitor this situation or is it common place...
