DISQUS

I am also interested in how the new tata will effect Inida. I recently returned from a month in south Inida -- Tamilnadu and Kerala -- and experienced the chaos of the traffic.

I don't know how the current roads will keep up with so many additional cars hitting the streets. Also parking and pollution will be an issue. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I believe after this car hits the streets many changes will have to happen. Currently traffic moved along pretty well and traffic jams were not too common ... mainly in Cochin. But if more traffic jams happen, the harmony in driving will no long be there and I believe more traffic lights, rules and new roads, bridges, etc. will be needed. And it seems the government is slow to move so I think it won't happen right away and will slowly begin to change as drivers raise a fuss. By the time I return to visit, it will be a very different country b/c part of the charm was driving and the winding roads that seemed to just pop up -- there seemed to be no planning on how roads were developed and in the future a plan will need to be there. I look forward to keeping an eye on how India grows.
