One of the most useless pieces of Advice I got when I shifted to Delhi, was that I should always tell the Rickshaw Drivers to use their Meters. “Meter se chalo !”.
Ha ! That didnt work on the first day, and I never tried it again after that.
It’s not just that the rickshaw drivers dont WANT to take you for the actual price. It’s also because if you’ve ever seen any of the meters, they all look like the image above.
Rusty barely functional (if at all) and just there because it should be.
Sigh. So really, Meter Se Chalo Jii ?
