      Its none of what u eloquently took ur precious time to explain, its actually Poverty wiv a disregard to one's well being and life by d lots in d boots and d absence or turn away or bribe of the road n traffic agencies that should stop dis reckless endangering of human lives, d driver might actually be a very good driver.

  65. All of you r just speaking too much grammer, d bottom-line is poverty. usually they r not able 2 afford d normal fare so they opt 2 sit in d boot and d river allows dem after collecting stipends from dem. I see it a lot in d north, its not right but d drivers feel they r doing such people a favor.
