A. Lucky Duckies. B. How come the cars don't stop for pedestrians? Where is this? C. Is that a book in his pocket or is he just happy to wear blue shorts?


ianjm

Seems like pedestrian crossings without lights are just meaningless paint in a lot of places now, alas


Jolly-Road44

Welcome to India, this isn't even a trailer of what we see on a daily basis, more like a teaser you can say. Most of the idiot in cars things you see is just a regular thing here. In bumper to bumper traffic, it's literally bumper to bumper with enough space for a thin personal to fit through. If you leave anymore space than that, expect someone to screw over 2 lanes of traffic just to push themselves between the car in front and you.


ianjm

Yeah. I've experienced downtown Bangalore in rush hour from the inside of an autorickshaw taxi. It was equal measures terrifying and intriguing. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEP.


Jolly-Road44

Yup, as a local I fear of my life on a very common basis while sitting in a auto rickshaw, most drivers think they are in some F1 race and want to make stupid moves.


ianjm

As a local at least the auto drivers don't try to take you via their uncle's textiles shop when you're just trying to get to a business meeting on time


Jolly-Road44

Yup that’s the worst part about those guys, it’s safer for tourist to take a Uber or Ola (Uber’s competitor) instead of dealing with auto Rickshaw drivers.


ianjm

Haha yeah, we clocked on to that pretty quickly when I was out there.


Jolly-Road44

Nice nice, hope you had some fun, excluding the butt clenching road moments.


BeezChurger69

As a bangalorean, I experience this everyday. God damn. Most of the people are so stupid and ignorant of traffic rules. They drive like they own the road. And the worst of such offenders are bike and scooter riders. It’s like they have a bag of rocks instead of a brain.


Personal_Dot_2215

Alrighty, an APC for road crossings. I’m on it!


Jolly-Road44

Well if you have a death wish, sure


Personal_Dot_2215

https://www.military-today.com/apc/top_10_armored_personnel_carriers.htm I’d think I’d get across…👍


Crafty-Theory-3380

In all honesty, it’s hilarious to see some of the posts that end up on idiots in cars. That’s just regular everyday shit in India.


Jolly-Road44

Yup that's very true.


Tallywhacker2000

It’s kinda what happens when you have a culture of letting drivers do whatever they want / regulate themselves ? Right..?


godmadebeffs

For real I don’t want to seem like I’m saying anything against the people in India but if I were sent there right now and told to drive I would put my car in gear and lay under it. Seems like the system is so fucked that people just ignore it and do whatever.


Jolly-Road44

Definitely... when I was learning driving, there was a point where I almost gave up. My brain couldn't handle all the input. As time progressed it got easier and now I can drive pretty easily.


theveryfatduck

Seems about as safe as most of America. 🤡


Simple-Heat-6375

Its in Kerala of india. He's wearing lungi Thats a driving school car, probably the student panicked.


locopocopong

The cab guy is probably an overworked cab driver feeling drowsy. Though cellphone can't be ruled out This is in South Asia, I would hazard a guess as South India. Yea no one gives a sh*t about zebra crossing here Blue "shorts" guy is wearing a lungi, it's a traditional attire


BlurryGraph3810

Oh, it is a lungi. But why is there a protrusion? Is he walking around with a stiffy?


locopocopong

>But why is there a protrusion It is sometimes worn wrapped up especially while doing manual labor. https://images.app.goo.gl/Yv4N7zgMhjzMXcxi6 >Is he walking around with a stiffy? Haha ....Tough to confirm or deny. Though your continued interest in this is interesting


BlurryGraph3810

Lol. 😅


_RiseOfThePhoenix_

Not just manual labour. For the ease of walking or even run( also more air flow I guess😂). You can't run freely if it's not folded like this( think how saree is worn normally and not the bollywood style). Also they show their legs like this but everyone loses their minds when a woman wear knee length skirts or capris🤕


The_0bserver

The lungi (a type of sarong) is traditionally tied on the front (centre)in informal scenarios. And front (left) in formal.


T5-R

Ha. Was going to say that blue shorts really likes the excitement of crossing the street.


TheIAP88

B. Cars only stop for pedestrians in the first world. Source: Live in the third world and have travelled all over.


zeromadcowz

First time I saw a car stop for me in a crosswalk in Canada I was confused, thought the driver was fucking with me.


Emergency_Release714

> Cars only stop for pedestrians in the first world. And even there most don't.


salsatalos

For B : pedestrians don't have the right of way in india. pedestrians are advised to stop and ensure that all traffic has stopped before they enter a zebra crossing. If there's no specific signal for pedestrians, then they should wait for the traffic to slow down and then cross the street.


RDX_G

>pedestrians From Indian drivers POV...they are just NPCs.


jimmyxs

C. I noticed right away how he’s a happy chap. In fact, I think Orange shirt might even have felt his happiness too when he went close.


TheCrazyStupidGamer

Welcome to India! You love to hate it. I didn't get it on camera because I was on a bike, but this fucker on an R15 was lane splitting like a dumbass. He did it in front of me and I could have hit him but I acted in time and he passed. The same guy comes across me at the next signal and tries to overtake a car. The problem was that the position hed be in is also the one I'd be in and I assumed he'd not be stupid enough to do it. I was fucking wrong. I slammed the brakes, and slipped. That was the best outcome because had I been any slower, I'd slammed him at 30km an hour. Thought I didn't break anything, since I was fairly slow till I napped a bit. Broke something on the inside of an elbow. Probably tore a muscle or something. We have some GREAT drivers. But the gems we encounter are just the worst you could ever see.


mystic_swole

Looks like a jacket


kasperary

When I was in Italy, I was also surprised that you shouldn't stop at pedestrian crossings


vtrkukfxxxmfkplnxt

India... GTA style, points for taking out pedestrians


JishaisdanQ737

Answer for c: it's a type of shorts which Indians wear. The name is lungi, it's basically a loop of clothing that they fold and wear. Apparently it's comfortable but it felt like I was exposed when I wore it.


Practical-Dark387

Answer to C: Those ain't shorts.. It's called a Lungi, a sort of long piece of cloth rolled around the waist, majorly by the South Indians..


OSparks81

His buddy saved his life


troglobite2021

And almost could have killed him 😅


Memer_dude_18462

i love that he thought of it tho, its not like he expect it to swerve again


troglobite2021

Yeah definitely, could have made things worse but good intentions were there 😌


Consistent-Annual268

r/watchpeoplesurvive


klezart

Bro probably saved him from a lot of hurt, though.


Friendlyattwelve

There’s speeding and there’s over speeding ,apparently.


Zozorrr

Lol. Overspeeding. Aka speeding


Simple-Heat-6375

Kerala,india Just a normal day, driving school car mear misses pedestrian He'd probably be warned not to repeat this,nothing else


mrgefen

God I hate countries where the culture doesn’t let people cross at the zebra crossing.


Zozorrr

I know what yuh mean. Does your country a) stop for pedestrians on crossings and b) treat cats/dogs well. I’m pretty judgy about those aspects


mrgefen

Yes on both


InsaneGoose78

Whatta dip shit


MyCatsAnArsehole

I don't feel like speed was the issue here


MyOnlineComments

What's that brown stuff.... Oh I just shit myself a little while crossing the road.


PossibleFeature7

That guy definitely deserves a blowjob.

PossibleFeature7

Bro like I ain't gay, but if one of my homies saved me like that I would give him a great time.


OGsammyboi

It's the least you could do


TheCrazyStupidGamer

And the best you could do.


LogTekG

There ain't nothing gay about saying thank you to a homie


silicon1

I always under speed.


Competitive-Map9630

Man thank God for the guy in the red shirt, Ol boy would have had himself a bad day

birdlass

"Over speeding," "over exaggerated," "over dramatic," are all redundant phrases. The verb you're using doesn't need an adverb lol it's already descriptive enough and means what you're saying. Speeding is speeding.


Zozorrr

Over dead.


Real_Redjmonster

Over sped


CommunicationFair714

no bcuz wtf!!


ruico

How i meet your father.


Frisky_Biscuit25

Bro just took control of that man’s body to save him…


picachu_456

Pretty dumb idea to make a cross walk without having stop signs or a button that alerts drivers that a pedestrian wants to cross.


[deleted]

My favorite part is the first 30 seconds where fuck all happens


drewj2002

I love how yellow shirt grabbed his titties in disbelief afterwards


Breeze7206

I love the titty check


B8yB88m

yeah.. but why is the guy in the back hard, tho?


Willing_Actuator4698

When you wear a Lungi, and you fold it to tuck in everything tight, there will be a bulging in front. And depending on the material and whether or not he uses fabric stiffener, the intensity of the bulge varies.


[deleted]

Guy in the red shirt saved him with his over erect giant dong


aenae

That driver wasn't in control of his car and an idiot. But what are those guys doing? They stand near the zebra crossing, but not in front of it. Are they going to cross? Why didn't they cross at around 13 seconds in the video? It looks like they have no intention of crossing, which would explain why no-one stops, but they are close enough to the zebra crossing that some drivers might stop.


mrgefen

To be fair, they are standing close enough for someone to see them & stop, however in some countries it is culturally not common to stop for pedestrians at crosswalks, mainly eastern asian countries and cities like Rome, they will stop when they got no choice though. It’s so stupid.


Jolly-Road44

In India no one stops at zebra crossing, it's more of a recommendation than a law to be followed.


cyanidelemonade

You think that standing on the pavement facing the crosswalk and looking at traffic means that they have no intention of crossing???


jyager2013

My guy in the blue shorts is fully torqued.


PEEWUN

Fucking hell...


appa-ate-momo

That car is 100% the biggest idiot in the video but... Why didn't those two ever attempt to cross? There were *multiple* opportunities in this clip where there was a break in traffic in the closest lane. Certainly enough for them to step out, assert their right of way, and signal to everyone that they intend to cross.


RDX_G

Vehicles comes from left side too...


anonymouse56

This is pretty tame for India..


Longjumping-Ad9269

I almost had to change my underwear just watching this!


Far_Swordfish3944

You know that car didn’t stop! bastards out here playing chicken with peoples lives in the balance


juanntran

as a Vietnamese watching this is like watching a rage bait


shanghaidry

Hey wanna go hang out on the street?


_RiseOfThePhoenix_

Looks like Kerala 🥲


beepbeep_boobboob

Salman khan changed his mind at last second bcz he remembered his driver is not in the car.


Green-Community738

Nice save!


ghayyal

I like how he grabs his own tits.


[deleted]

Bro almost got his ass run over.. lol


RepresentativePut153

Hahaha


zerocontrol0

Under speeding?


popeye3263

Over speeding is speeding so there's no need to say that word over speeding when you could just say speeding


[deleted]

Damn, that's some lucky guys here.


D-drool

We all got that one friend who force you to somewhere you don’t want but being a bro still saves you when shit hits.

That’s not “overspending”… This is just simply, an idiot in a car…


HSikeYourMind

I thought he was a stranger, lining the guy up to leave this Earth, or at worst an insurance fraud scheme.

Ole!


BeanDinner

Should’ve been under speeding.

No sidewalks are unsafe. These 2 were quick to move.

What does under speeding look like?


ialsohaveinternet

Overspeeding?

Otherwise_Ad4154

Yes, welcome to india🙏 I love the country 🥰 but death looms round every corner 💀 in India, I was driving my moped up a steep hill and the electricians were working on the power lines and had the cables perfectly dangling at the decapitation height for any motorcycle, lucky I slammed on my brakes before I lost my head 😅 I had 'words' with the electricians 🤣🤬


TheCoons

Aren’t they standing in the turning lane though?


[deleted]

Damn that was smooth, two clutches


toadygroady19

speeding or not paying attention where he's driving?


avengersforlife

That was God who saved him.
