Chennai Buses

The other day during morning rush our we came across this bus that evidently needed a push. I keep wondering just how far those men had to push!




I also witnessed on another day a bus that had some extra passengers...riding outside! This happens all the time and I believe that it is fairly common for people to fall off and get ran over either by the back of the bus or the cars following behind. There seems to always be so many senseless tragedies here. When there are accidents there are ambulances here but the ambulances have a hard time getting though traffic. I was explaining to our driver that in the US we pull over to let the ambulance though, that is not the case here, the ambulances just have to fight there way though traffic like everyone else.
