Since the time Apple came up with this square styled brick lacking buttons, we have been after it, some are obsessed with it, and for many of us on the road, we have been trying to plug it in our rides. We are talking about the iPod here

Most people believe that baby seats in cars are required when traveling at high rate of speed, however, in practice, they are required more in the stop and go city traffic.

The city traffic actually sees more braking and acceleration in a car than highways. Its when the car accelerates or decelerates, the G- Forces put pressure on the infants neck which is vulnerable under the age of 1 year. A rear facing child seat helps negating any effects of sudden braking on the child’s neck.

Apple – Movie Trailers – Fast and Furious – Featurette.

Fast and Furious - Poster

Fast and Furious - Poster

The much eagerly awaited 4th installment of Fast and Furious is out, and this time it has Vin Diesel in it. Has more punch, more style, more action, and from the clips available on Apple, looks like it has more open road stunts as well.

Probably a good movie to target this summer.

For those of you wondering what is this? (Zzzzz!!?)

Well, Fast and the Furious series of films have been hitting the theaters since 2001. There selling point, cars, speed, engine modifications and everything automobile, a little over the top Hollywood style, but who cares. They are just fun.

When you go and watch this, just don’t think of the story-line, there’s probably not much in it anyway, just go for the alloys rims, go for the handbrake turns, go for all those other things which are not recommended and legal on streets.

Have fun. Trivia and Nostalgia is here at IMDB

As most surprising articles do, this one came along early sunday morning. It read ‘bla bla bla… Skoda Yeti in India sometime or in couple of years. Vague.. yes, but thats probably one small do it all vehicle, with a little ugly C-Pillar.

Not that anyone is complaining, if it gets here in its complete 4×4 form, it will probably be the only 4×4 in India to actually fit in the city and be in the wild. Let’s see if Skoda moves faster this time than what they did for Fabia, which was a horribly long wait.

Not too bad a looker one may say.

We get to see many road signs, some obscured by the tree, the other hidden behind political posters of film heros, and some simply washed away by rain, thunder, water, pollution etc. If they were visible, this is what some of them (that are necessary) would be saying.

Decided to put this up as there is simply no documentation available on the web of this apart from some signage jokes and some crude scanned versions that have blurry texts. This is Version 1.0, there are more signs that are not included in this post.

The entry restriction signs.

No Entry. Or entry restricted for oncoming traffic only.
