Driving Mentality
Location: Pokhara, Nepal
Local Time: Friday, Nov 4, 2005 - 6:30pm
I was riding around on a bicycle yesterday, and I noticed something. In Canada, we are responsible for our own car. We do appropriate checks to make sure there is space, then move into that space. Well, in theory any way.
In Nepal, it seems as though the driver behind is responsible for the vehicle ahead. The drivers pull out in the road without checking, go slow, whatever. However, the following driver always responds in time and makes the adjustments to give space to the driver ahead. And passes after beeping to warn he's going by.
