I think overpopulation is to blame. There are just too many people.

thats the real problem
more people -->lots of people wanting to drive/get a driving license by any means possible(some people even think they can drive well and dont learn anything from driving school just "pay" and get the license)-----> these make bad drivers and cause traffic snarls or more dangerous accidents
Actually the main problem is NOT indian culture its Indian Driving schools(or indian mentality that i can "pay" and get anything)

Mumbai possibly has the worst kind of auto wallah

No kidding, but Imo, people passing out of driving schools are bigger retards than those learning to drive by themselves. No offence.
In (car) driving schools, more than half of the part of 'driving' is done by instructor himself. Hence most people freak out the first time they take the wheel by themselves.
But I guess discussing about this will do no good but take the topic astray.
.
Regarding population, i strongly disagree.
Population will rise, eventually. That has (again, imo) has nothing to do with bad behaviour of people. As long as there are traffic lights and honest officials and strict rules at every crossroad and corner, I dont think people will intentionally break rules, unless ofcourse they are complete duchebags.
And, 'duchebaggery' is mentality, or should i say mental problem.
Case rested.

Hence, Moral of Story : Drive Safely and Smile a lot.

When I went to give my driving test a guy outside offered me a license for 800 bucks. I gave him a big "FO". I went ahead and gave my test. Since I had been waiting for this day for years, I did everything meticulously, like the 5-point turn etc which no one did (everyone else just went straight to the end)
At the end of it, I went to the driving examiner and he said - " Ok, go fast now it's your turn" :|
:facepalm:

^^^Even if you'd just had done nothing and stood there, and said, "Kya sir, abi to aapke samne drive kr k dikhaya".
He'd probably passed you anyhow.

Population? Not at all. Take example of Japan. It is even more densely populated than us. Over-population of vehicles without the infrastructure? yes.

It's lack of efficient public transport. People won't need cars that way and with good public transport, fuel consumption (and prices) will also go down. Every desi idiot will buy a car if you give him 5 lakhs. Indian drivers are good, but just don't have the culture to be civilised.

Giving/taking bribes is also part of our culture. Mentality defines your culture. Not some ancient texts. I think I said that before.

Basically people go mad when they sit on the wheel. Delhi is no worse. And they all get violent.

To be fair pedestrians are no better. People do get mad regardless whether they are on a wheel or walking on the road or just travelling mode.
