You seem to be a heartless fellow BuffaloaCitizen. When you are inside the 3wheeler, you always push the drivers to go fast

Those 3-wheeler drivers, most, had not chosen the trade have we had a system that gives fair chance for everyone....... Some are running like headless chicken to feed their families and pay up hefty lease rentals.. Food for thought.

What a pathetic thing to say. Have some empathy for the poor driver and his family.
