Pune watch - where are the raptors coming from?

Pune is no Jurassic park. I am very clear on that. Actually it is a wonderful city with great culture, knowledge, heritage and most importantly technological growth and adaptation.

And still I say that Pune has Raptors all around who are agile, smart and they attack you from all directions,
Who are these raptors... well bike drivers who don't drive their bikes but drive it like a gun or the bus drivers who try to squash you overtaking you from your right side and then after all the trouble they stop the bus at the next bus stop which incidently is just 30 feet away. Or it is cars or bikes who just enter your driving lane from various blind spots, ever ready to cause accidents and more ready to actually appreciate/praise you with fancy vocabulary each language has for occasions of dispute.

I drove through this jurassic park today. Many people do it everyday. They possibly are not that bothered. My point is road disciplines should be maintained, so everybody would enjoy driving. Also it might just make driving in Pune a bit safer for the people.

Your views are needed.
