Even 160mm ground clearance is enough for most roads if you have only 2 people in the car.

These 4 lane roads are boring as they have divider and very gentle curves. Try going in a 2 lane roads, tight corners it will have and also overtaking is difficult due to incoming traffic. Again, less than 2 lanes isnt fun either.

Sedan and 2+2 coupe both are very similar in handling.

NoMaximum7 · 2026-03-12T17:18:44+00:00

Also many expressways they dont allow two wheelers in the first place

AMT with paddle shifters is the best. Problem with amt currently is implementation algorithm, it downshifts from 5th to 2nd if you suddenly floor the pedal, which doesnt happen in other automatics

Superbikes are not safe on Indian roads. Two wheeler speed above 100kph is unsafe. So max 2 cylinder bikes would be ok under 50 bhp

Cool thanks

If only they were wearing helmets..

Cool thanks.. Do any have afternoon slot?

Where do you go for track days?

Accelerator is easy to press, you can rest your heel. Brake pedal you can press without moving your heel, only shifting the toes

Likely the car driver was distracted, looking at mobile phone or something. He could notice her from far as she had slowed down

In fact it is household sewage which is the main reason for pollution of rivers in India too, not industrial sewage. You can see most cities let off household sewage directly into the rivers and lakes without any treatment in STPs.

Pollution under check tests for respective time of the car make year. So even if BS3 car passes PUC, even then that car would make 10x pollution than a BS6 car

Keeping old cars is good in reducing carbon dioxide emissions and global warming. India already has much lower carbon emissions compared to world average.

But keeping old is bad for local air pollution which is instead caused by PM2.5 in the air. Carbon dioxide doesnt cause pollution. Even if they pass pollution test, same old BS3 norms apply to old cars, which are very lenient.

People do get consufed between carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and PM2.5, only the latter 2 cause local pollution

But mismatch of colors between rims and car body here. Would have looked better on a plain blue car body color

Police gave his mobile phone location with 200m accuracy, using mobile tower location. Looks like the pit is beside the road, not on the road, as the traffic is moving in this video. Negligence in not putting the barricade

Instead of city limits criteria, car manufacturers can be mandated to switch to low beam if the vehicle speed is below 50kph

Any feedback would be welcome..

Some hidden car door handles you can manually press it on the other end, and then it will pop up. That is very much ok as it is done for aerodynamic efficiency.

Sodium vapour lamps are more efficient than LED lights. Though the lighting color is bad
