Beep, Beep, BEEEEEEEEEP


When I first arrived in India I would always have a little giggle at the sign which is painted on the back of most large vehicles, it reads ‘Horn OK Please’.  ‘Awwwww, they have got their English all messed up, ‘Horn OK Please’? it doesn’t mean anything, bless them’ I used to think. But before long you realize that it isn't 'bless them' at all and that ‘Horn OK Please’ roughly translates to:


‘Dear the poor sod that is stuck behind me

I am probably driving like an absolute retard risking not only my life but your life also, so please feel free to abuse me with the sound of your car horn until I move out of the middle of the road or stop whatever the retarded thing is that I am doing.

Thanks
The Driver’
