Rush hour on 2 wheels

As the lights turn green a scramble for placings in the run 
to the next signalled junction.

While the nouveau riche get around in gleaming rides, the teeming masses still rely on their trusty bicycles, mopeds, scooters and motorcycles which rule the asphalt at rush hour. In this densely populated city, vehicles of all description and sizes jostle for road space even where there are bicycle lanes to help shepherd 2-wheelers safely along. Motorists are generally expected to give way to cyclists but here ego reigns. Big commands respect and small fries on two wheels, or three, press their rights at their own peril. Pedestrians at designated crossings too have to be mindful of this.
