Here is what dictionary had to say about attitude
Attitude:
"A complex mental state involving beliefs and feelings and values and dispositions to act in certain ways"
Well.. I would now like to define something called AUTOtitude which my fellow bangaloreans would definitely have experienced with at one point or the other.
AUTOtitude:
Auto driver + attitude = AUTOtitude
"A highly typical attitude of the auto drivers in bangalore"
There will be a huge line of autos waiting for the passengers(God knws if at all they are waiting for sm1 or juz letting time pass by tht way). Here are the replies wch a person calling any of those autos would face..
P1: destination xxx(wch actually is juz 3 KMs away)
Driver1(looking around): 100 rupees (with a wicked smile)
Driver2(gazing at P1): One dirty look and then asks the passenger to get lost in sign language!(is he really dumb?)
Driver3(Listening to FM on his mobile): How dare u disturb me when i am listening to one of my fav songs?
Bugged at this behaviour, the passenger now stops a running auto which is not hired. The driver just slows down and upon hearing the destination races fwd in the direction of the place on the last gear leaving the passenger startled..! He is all prepared to leave his auto without any passengers to any distance..but he doesn't want to drop this poor P1. what grudge does he have on this poor passenger? as though he is gonna drop him for free..!! shucks..! these auto ppl in b'lore are really kings..!
On top of all this rude behaviour to the passengers, they want the govt to officially rise the auto prices per KM. It was raised frm 6/- to 7/- per KM recently under the condition that they don't refuse any of the passenger..! But unfortunately, the auto drivers don't seem to pay any attention to the conditional clause.

and to add....
These auto drivers can go very slow(when they are looking for passenger) or go very fast(if they have a passenger). I wonder if their speedometers wont show the speed.
You will never be able to guess in which direction are they going.
Though it is a three wheeler it can happily fit in a place where u feel only a two wheeler can. Hatsoff...
