Baby's First Drive (in India)!

Yesterday, I drove myself home. Normally, this would not be an accomplishment, but given that it's left-hand driving and Mumbai, I deserve a gold star. Below are some key lessons I learned from my brief experience:

1) Close your side mirrors--unless you want to lose them
2) Use rear view mirror ONLY to practice your driving 'game face' and NOTHING else
3) Use your horn--as frequently as possible
4) Ignore lanes--it's often more dangerous to try to follow lane driving
5) Never follow driven behind/in front/anywhere around anyone with below scarlet letter



Above "L-Board" indicates a "learning driver." Technically, I should have one of these I guess, oh well.
