I have been in Bangalore for the last three weeks on an official visit, and I can't help hoping this trip gets over quick! Not that Pune's roads are a motorist's dream - far from it. But the traffic jams in this city are much worse than Pune. I suspect, however, that it'd only be a matter of time before Pune catches up with this undesirable trend.
I had once been to Bangkok when my parents had been there and was told that sometimes, it took a couple of hours for the traffic snarls to clear up. Gosh! Thank God these cities are nowhere near that level, but it does get irritating to think that a two kilometre journey on an automobile from my place of stay to the office can take as much as fifteen minutes!
