Drivers in my country need to have the skills of a pilot or rather an astronaught

Went to Dhuri by car to attend the Bhog ceremony of the brother in
law.Whereas while traveling through villages by car has an advantage
that fatal accidents are averted,there are a few disadvantages as
well.On some occasion a tractor may emerge from a lane
unexpectedly.Chances of tyre puncture are more.There are compartively
more bumps on the village roads.When two vehicles cross each other
there is a very narrow margin between them.A driver almost needs the
skills of a pilot to drive on the rural roads.Today my car was on a
speed breaker.It went back a little on its own and ...... it hit a car
that was just and just behind.The girl who was driving that car blew a
loud horn and came to us at the Jagraon road.I told her politely that
she ought to maintain a little distance while driving.The rear tyre
got punctured today near Raikot.It is a bit difficult to remember the
turns at the village ring road.After entering Raikot a right turn is
required near a barber's shop and after
that the way is almost straight. From the village Johalan it is simple
as one has merely got to follow the black road.At Lohgarh left turn is
required and then perhaps one need to just follow the black road
which would lead to Chappa.From Chappa there is a direct road to Dhuri
but I did not take a chance as last week we were advised that some
repairwork was taking place.Now that could be all the more difficult
for a car.So the route via Mithewal had to be adopted.On entering
Chappa left turn on the village ring road and then second left turn
leads to Mithewal.From Mithewal right turn is required at the village
ring road and then Perhaps the second right leads to Manal.From Manal
the route to Dhuri is simple.
