This Above All - Khushwant Singh (On Accidents & Hyderabad) Account of an accident I HAVE been driving cars since I was 12 years old. Those days there were very few cars on the roads. No policeman stopped me and asked me to show my driving licence, as my father was an Honorary Magistrate, Second Class, who imposed fines on people who drove cars without licences. I have driven cars in most countries of Europe, the USA and Canada. I never had an accident because I was a cautious driver who never took risks. At 85, I still drive my own car. When people ask me why I don't employ a chauffeur, I reply: "What for? I belong to a race of taxi drivers. I drive well and have never had an accident." For the past few weeks I have been driving to Lodi Park every evening to take a stroll. My daughter or grand-daughter accompany me. I need somebody to be with me when I walk as I have become somewhat unsteady on my feet and my vision is no longer as good as it used to be. On weekends some lady friend or other volunteers to accompany me. Usually it is Sheela Reddy who works with Harper Collins; at times it is Uma Nair who is a school teacher. The evening I had my first accident I was accompanied by Uma Nair. We set out earlier than usual as the days were getting short and the afternoon sun was pleasant. At 3.30 p.m.,................ tribuneindia.com

Well, your personal attacks on me only serve to reinforce the truth of what I have stated. They reflect more on you and your intellectual bankruptcy than on anything else. And coming to the issue of crap, you have no way of refuting that India has the largest number of "open air toilets" in the world. Do you???? Of course not!! So, having no way to refute that, and having no clue on how to change that, and having no courage to admit that, all that is left in your arsenal is name-calling. You are doing what just about any other idiot in your place would have done.
