Day 1

Started blogging with the inspiration from my cousin who is no more in this world but is famous in the blogging community as Jyonavan with his touching poems in Malayalam. though i had started it early, but couldnot commit myself with it,  for continuing it due various excuses... Now, feelings are for a steady activity.. as long as possible..
Everyday I travel around 65Km for my work (both ways) either by bus or car. The roads and the movements on it are dangerous most of the time. Rash driving by bus drivers, careless and speeding youth in new-gen motorbikes, dangerous Tipper lorry drivers, simple but terrifc auto drivers and the least but the potentially dangeous pedestrians, all make it a hell to drive a car on these roads. But, at times, the convenience and the time will make me take out my car to reach to office and back. The experience is mixed one, some days will go cool without any incident, no rise of adrenalin, but somedays oh God! You know it better how I passed those trying times.
The funny thing is that in Kerala Highways the Speed limit for a Bus/Truck/Tipper is 60Km. Still he will overtake me (cruising well below the legal limit of 70Kmph) like lightning. The guys coming in the opposite side in a 2 lane road without a divider will just come head on without any respect towards the other lane users, putting his headights on.. Signal points are the funny places.... Thumb rule of Traffic signals is Dont cross yellow. But, in my city of Calicut, drivers will even continue to cross the junction even if truned Red, that too in front of a police man.. Who cares.... accelerator and the vehicle is in my hand those who want to save life just stay away...from me otherwise I will bulldoze you...
