This has two points I'd like to make
- First, this is almost proof that motorcyclists are usually better drivers as well. Our hieghtness sense of awareness and circumstance obviously helps us. And I think our better, more rapid decision making skills and reflexes don't do us any harm either.
- Second, insurance rates this high will come to India soon as well. Insurance detariffing will eventually push rates up steeply. Say bye bye to your Rs 101 third party insurance... soon. I believe that insurance companies are already generating statistical behaviour databases which will probably determine how your next premium (say in five years time) will be determined. 22-year old? No garage? Red bike? You're screwed...
Not always!
ReplyDeleteMany bike riders in India often start driving cars the way they would ride a bike... when they upgrade.
That is not a nice thing! One more reason of the traffic woes we face here!
