1. At traffic lights if you don't go straight away you get horns beeping at you.
2. On interstate if you are driving expect a lot of people to drive in front of you without signalling.
3. On interstate there is a lot of pointless criss crossing between lanes.
4. Nobody will let you out or into the traffic.
5. When you are driving on a normal road people will cut in front also. We were on a road with traffic and this man in a Volkswagen cut right in front of us and drove into a car park, we were scared as we were not intending to stop (stop start traffic) so he was lucky.
Fact: Rio is worse to drive than SP.
At least in SP there is electronical surveillance everywhere about semaphores, speed limits, and bus lanes, and for pedestrians, if they notice the driver that they will cross the street in the crosswalk, the driver will stop or slowdown in most of cases. In Rio the drivers are less respectful. The problem with SP is the traffic jam, surely one of the worst ones of the world.
4 years ago, I experienced heavy traffic jam in Bangkok. But that was the time they are working on their BTS and some subway system so some roads are either narrow or closed. 2 hours in traffic...beat that!
Definately Mumbai, anywhere in India takes the cake
