Auto Repair is the Fate Maker in Auto Business

Automobiles come and go but the auto repair sagas continues beyond the life of vehicles and with it, always go the never ending process of repair which you may very call refurbishing too.

In some countries the repairing of autos begins with purchase of vehicle, thanks to fashion trends originated and inspired by movies which necessarily brings automobiles repair job too.

Yes, there are movies which are completely developed around strong auto theme, the auto role really have lasting impact on auto use behaviour which is matter of surprise in advertising media gurus. You also find auto repair an essential element in the cinema world going with vehicle owners

Natural conclusion – Auto repair is more important than automobile when you think from usability side. Vehicles are moving item. Everything moving need maintenance and repair. Same applies to the metals moving you.

The blank road safety fair in garden

Routine of events in road safely week are part of every year's official ritual. The 27th year of celebration really alarms you to redesign the whole thing.

I wrote in 2012 that The twenty-third year of road safety week was celebrated earlier this month. There were conferences and seminars galore but no concrete plan of action to ensure road safety. The nodal bodies of road transport in the country – the National Highways Authority of India as well as the Ministry of Road transport and Highways conceded that not much had been done to improve road safety and neither had they had any specific targets to achieve. Over 1.3 lakh people die in road accidents in India accounting for 10% of all fatal accidents in the world albeit with only 1% of the world’s vehicles. The statistics is alarming but do not convey the pain of losing a loved one to the families of each of these victims. Just ponder over the huge, meaningless loss of lives because of faulty, ad hoc and short term road safety drives. The UN has identified five pillars for decreasing the fatalities in road accidents – building road safety management capacity, upgrading safety in road infrastructures, enhancement of safety in vehicles, improvement in road user behaviour and emergency services for improving road safety. One of the prime reasons for these tragic accidents, I believe, is the poor road infrastructure. The planning for a new road that is being built is not even geared to take care of the burgeoning traffic today. New Roads and flyovers that have been built in our country are not only an eyesore aesthetically but hardly cater to the present needs. One can only shiver at the mere prospect of driving on these roads in ten years from now. And mind you these are costly and new additions to the road infrastructure. There seems to be no long –term traffic volume calculation when these roads are in their planning stages. Sure a bureaucrat would be able to tell you how the plan has been sanctioned by a host of government departments and technically has all the papers in place. No amount of correct procedures can compensate for forward looking road planning. The so called new roads are so narrow that you are always travelling in serpentine queues. In addition the human factor is equally to blame for the fatalities. Car driving is a stressful activity and due precautions are needed for a safe drive. Each person driving on the road has equal right of way on a public road. People engage in competitive driving, travel at high speeds for the thrill of it, making it dangerous for both themselves as well as those of other drivers and pedestrians. The other human error occurs in the way that driving licenses are issued, some people are therefore not even aware that they are driving badly. The last but not the least reason that make our roads unsafe is the cultural acceptance of aggressive driving or road rage. Anybody avoiding a road rage confrontation is believed to be a coward. Aggression is thereby indirectly sanctioned by society as a means of driving making it impossible for traffic police to monitor such a mentality. our agriculture continues to be monsoon dependent. Each bad monsoon spells disaster for the economy yet we still do not have an effective mechanism to harness monsoon water and conserve it for the rough patch. Even where we have managed to collect this water we have failed to distribute it to our farmers. The other solution that the government had in mind was the ILR (Inter Linking of Rivers), an expensive idea and one that may lead to trouble in neighboring countries like Bangladesh. The remedy is not to have more expensive solutions but to make the existing ones more efficient. The enormous costs incurred in the making of these dams can only be realized when all Indian farmers have equal rights over its waters.

Driving a car means using all of our senses to control the movement in all directions

The pleasure of vehicular movement involves steering wheel, clutch, brakes, throttle pedals and gear stick to accomplish controlled navigation to reach a destination.

One more kind of driving also exists, carrying other people to desired locations using the same or advance kind of tools.

Sometimes handbrake lever is useful as well. Normal procedure means that you get into a car, sit on a chair, set your mirrors up, fasten your seatbelt, push the clutch pedal to the metal, check if the gear stick is in neutral position and you can start the engine by moving your car keys. For some people this moment is amazing and they feel a shiver down their back as if a new life has just been born ready to go, be unleashed. You put first gear with your gear lever, release the clutch and you feel that this being starts to move. It’s all up to your senses, up to You to control this thing, to unleash it, order it to do exactly what You want. You hear the engine and if it’s too loud (meaning that there are too many rpms) you once again push the clutch pedal, change gear, drop the clutch and admire through your side windows that everything starts to move even faster. Following this instructions and switching up to fifth gear in relevant conditions you can accelerate your vehicle to maximum speed and feel that You are the God, You are in control. But the pain of life means that you don’t have a possibility to feel that for too long and need to lose the speed by pushing your brakes pedal. I mentioned about the handbrake lever as well. It is necessary to use that in some situations for example if you stop your cat at the traffic lights waiting for the green light and finding yourself up a hill. You have to switch into neutral and pull your handbrake lever so that the engine still can work while the car stops safely. When the light switches into green you quickly push the clutch, change into first gear, have your right foot on the throttle pedal and then quickly and in one moment (what is really crucial) you release the clutch, push the throttle pedal, release the handbrake lever so that your car safely starts up a hill with no danger of going back and hitting the car behind.
