The NSFW tag is because I have no clue what happened to some people in this video. The video states that it is of an intersection in India. All I know is that it is a compilation of some of the worst driving I have ever seen. Why is it that (it seems) that people in some countries can't drive for shit? I'm not talking about idiots that cut people off or stupid stuff like that, i'm talking about people that should not be allowed to operate anything with a motor. Sure, there aren't any traffic lights at this intersection that I can see, but shit, they have eyes...brakes....no?

HERE IT IS

Human life is valued differently in certain places, often by necessity.

This is the most cringeworthy thing I've seen in a long time. Intersections like this are why stoplights exist.

Both eyes? most likely.
Brakes? ...Maybe?

I would think it's a general disregard for norms, lack of education, lack of driving education whatsoever in many cases and a different view in life's worth, other's and your own.

Comes with being part of a thousand million population in which a big percentage is totally poor and a majority would still be considered very poor by 1st world standards.

There's a nice interview Clarkson made to Sanjeev Bahaskar in Top Gear's SIARPC segment a few years back, in it they speak about how driving in India is, the whole "well if I die so be it" approach people have to it over there.

Best part is around like 5:30 where a tractor T-bones the shit out of a van and it rolls into the gully. After the crash, driver jumps out of the still moving tractor, says "fuck THIS" and runs off. Tractor then proceeds to run off road and roll down same gully.

I've driven in India. Tons of licensed and unlicensed idiots on the road. Nobody cares about following rules of the road. Its a free for all really. No wonder it has the highest road related casualties in the world.
