This article might go some way to explaining why it's probably safer to take the bus. Mind you, I would sooner take my chances with my riding rather than rely on a Indian bus drivers skills.

Also from another story on Mumbai. " Roads: Road indiscipline by motorists who flout traffic rules and regulations has been cited as the major cause of accidents in Mumbai.

The highest number of accidents was caused by cars, in which casualties were 105, followed by lorries, which caused 94 deaths. Mumbai recorded 71 hit-and-run cases in which 71 people were killed. Two-wheelers caused 68 accidents in which 71 were killed.
However, after the traffic police cracked the whip on drunken driving in 2006, the number of such accidents has fallen." This quote was referring to a yearly quarter.

I am impressed with the balancing skills, certainly more practical than balancing books on your head as woman did a century ago. Wonder if it was a new bike being delivered from the shop, from the view towards the end of the tape.
