The buzz around Volkswagen’s new transport bus
I told myself I will not own a boring car. The family's utility needs affected this somewhat, as my wife and I couldn't find a car to rent with a manual transmission. If I squint, I can pretend our Volkswagen Tiguan is just an oversized GTI. Then the Volkswagen ID.Buzz appeared on my radar. The original plan was to consider the car seeking its normal name at the end of our lease, but that was 18 months ago, well before its November 2024 debut. Instead of investing in a new car, we bought a lease on the Tiguan while we waited for this new minivan. The lack of a clear launch date (combined with the post-pandemic shortage of used cars) led us to shop around. Our plan is to enjoy a new car and by the time the lease is up, we'll have a production-ready ID.Buzz ready to go. But this never materialized. While I'm not interested in electric cars,…

Mahindra Thar driver stops KSRTC bus from overtaking
It is not uncommon for bus drivers to violate traffic rules on Indian roads. We have come across several such incidents across the country, where dangerous driving by heavy vehicle drivers often leads to accidents. Here we look at an incident in Kerala where a government bus was trying to overtake but a car driver crossed into the opposite lane, blocking the bus's path.
