I don't think I can make that point clearly enough. I wish I had gotten some video of the driving in the daytime. I've never seen anything like it. My ride from the airport when I arrived was a nice welcoming, with the taxi speeding down the road (and sometimes off it), splitting lanes, ignoring lanes, ignoring red lights, tailgating. Wow. And I soon picked up that this was completely normal. Cars split lanes and push other cars out of the way with their horn, cutting people off and even driving the wrong way down the street was the status quo.

When I was in Thailand with Nabi, we took a scooter taxi ride that was pretty terrifying. I think India would be just as terrifying to those Thai scooter drivers.

So of course to finish off my trip I drove a (thankfully short) trip back to the hotel. Keep those brakes ready!
