US Govt. orders women to wear 'idiot' sign board

Today, I read a news in cnn-ibnlive website that US government has asked a women to wear a signboard saying 'Only a idiot drives on side walk to avoid school bus' for breaking traffic rules. She was caught on camera driving on a sidewalk to avoid a Cleveland school bus that was unloading children. At first when i read the news, i felt if our govt. starts taking action for such incidents then, I don't know how many people will be wearing such signboard and standing at the Interaction.... Traffic Rules are very hardly followed in India. As soon as they sit in the driver's seat, their goal is to reach destination either by going on the road or foot path or over taking from the opposite way or honking as soon as signal goes green even if he is at the end of that traffic signal... Just two days back, while driving I was struck in an intersection such that from all the four ways people were blocking and no where any one can go and everyone is blocking each other... on t...

Effects of Sandy Hurricane in namma bengaluru....

Wow.... what a morning. Its Wednesday, mid of the week. Since morning its windy, drizzling and chill outside. I waited for the rain to stop so that i can ride to office without getting drenched....  It stopped for sometime but the traffic in Bangalore which everybody know how it will be during rainy days made me drag on the road for nearly one and a half an hour. I usually take 30 mins to reach office and it today it was 1 hour 15 mins.... that extra 45 mins made me drench in the rain. So while coming to office, I felt this rainfall might be due the effects of Sandy Hurricane which is hitting badly in eastern part of North America. The havoc that has been created by this super storm is unimaginable. No power, flooding all major cities of US of America,  Subways and Railroads have been halted.... How India will react for such major disaster if it occurs ( touch hood.... lets not wish for it). Just for a small drizzle, the traffic goes bad, drainage system will get bloc...

Service to Society

Everyday while coming to office or while traveling from one place to another in bangalore city, I see things which I really feel to change or stop in what ever way i can.... But I am not able to in many things... You might be wondering what am i talking about ?? Its about basic civic sense... People just dont bother about others. They are ok if things are fine with them :( Today while coming to office i saw Pile of Garbages covering half of the road and this is the case in most of the bangalore localities these days as there is a big issue about garbage dumping area. It rained heavily last night. Vehicles were passing by on top of these garbages and it looked yuck for me to pass that stretch.... Nobody is bothered. The concerned persons are sitting in A/C room discussing what can be done for this issue.... It has not yet resolved and it is almost a week now. People just throw their household garbage on top of this pile and forget about it. If you any time get a chance to trav...
