Unfortunately its not uncommon to see big vehicles drive on the wrong
side of the highway. Their mantra seems to be “All is well that ends
well. ” Somewhere on the Chennai-Vellore-Bangalore highway

You will see plenty of deer as you drive on the road through Bandipur Tiger reserve. Here is a big herd of deer. We didnt stop as it is advisable not to stop on these roads and also the 2 other cars had stopped […]

The final stretch of the road to the parking lot at Wild Planet Jungle
Resort is unpaved dirt road, but its patiently drivable in any car. Be
prepared to reverse when someone comes in the opposite direction. […]

Buses are notorious for forcing vehicles off the road as they overtake without a care in the world in India. This bus forces 2 vehicles off the road as it overtakes without a care in the world

What do you think of this two wheeler riding on the fast overtaking lane? Especially since he has chosen this lane to ride the wrong way right onto oncoming traffic……

The Kallada bus first overtook me from the left where the lane was ending, but I managed to squeeze in to the right most lane. I saw the brake lights flicker in the bus after a few moments and realised he just […]

You’d think that slow speed on rough roads would make it easy to stop if
the truck in front of you slowed. This car was tailgating the truck at
speeds of about 30-40 KMPH and almost failed to brake on time […]

Watch these bikers race on the highway with one biker trying to take a
video of the other. This is on the Coimbatore – Salem – Vellore
stretch. They were wearing no protective gear.

A short 2 minute segment of this highway on a bright day.

This is the coimbatore to Pollachi road. I love the lush green
surroundings with coconut trees and changing scenery as it traverses
through small villages and towns. The roads are not the best, but the
ride […]

At beyond the 40 second mark, you will notice the green government bus
nearly sandwich the Maruti car against the median. The traffic is
haphazard and the reason is the highway maintenance vehicle watering […]

Always watch out for pedestrians trying to quickly cross the road. They
may not warn you, but if there is an accident, its usually the
pedestrian who get injured more and the car driver who will get blamed – […]

Two bumps on the road.
A ‘jeep’ bumps into a 2-wheeler who falls down and a two wheeler bumps into a car and falls down.
These are so common that we accept them as normal here

This is on the highway near Dindigul. The Tempo/ Force Traveller nearly pushed me off the road with his rash overtaking maneuver

I hate these kind of drivers on hill roads. Trying to overtake on bends and forcing themselves in front of you. He missed the scenery and I continued to enjoy it!

A Ford Mustang spotted in Vellore. Blink and you’ll miss it!

Lovely road – the highway between Dindigul and Salem. Saw this monster
truck carrying some massive part of something driving on the designated
left lane with a guide car behing. Felt awesome overtaking it!

Looks like everyone survived this incident – but barely!

This jaywalker almost stumbled on to my car on the Chennai – Vellore- Benguluru highway. Thankfully he was not drunk and noticed my car early enough to get out of the way, even as I braked and moved my car a little.

I crossed this accident site in April, 2018. This was close to Vellore on the Bangalore (Salem) – Vellore – Chennai Highway. Car was damaged, but there was no loss to life. I couldn’t find out what happened
