Dil Chahta Hai

Pretty Funny!

Think twice before you bust someone's a__ while driving, especially a policeman's.

Some drivers have this annoying habit of sticking the nose of their car into the bumper of the car in front of it. This is merely to make way for themselves since they are driving merely at about 2 to 3 mph greater than the car in front.

Anyway, if you are one of those drivers who try to bust people in this manner, do not EVER try this trick on a policeman.

Yesterday Brat and I witnessed a funny incident, while returning to work from lunch. This policeman, on a motor bike, stopped gauging the speed of passing cars (maybe he was going for lunch at 1.00 PM) and joined the other drivers on the road. Very soon he was right behind us and we dutifully changed lanes to let him pass. Apparently, another driver did not see the reason as to why she should travel behind the policeman and that too at just about the speed limit of the highway! Hence she went remarkably close to the motor bike (probably she belonged to the group that I have referred to). The policeman tolerated this for about 30 seconds, then smartly changed lanes, and turned on the lights the moment she passed him.

Like the driver couldn't see what the policeman was up to! Served her right!

Is that me being unkind? No! I feel very uncomfortable when people try to push their luck while driving and I am at the receiving end. It is probably the reason why I enjoyed this incident a lot.
