Danger on The Wheel

On my way to office, the driving pleasure ends as I exit from the NH4 to Paud road in Chadni chock junction. My expertise to negotiate traffic on Paud road till my office has been increasing everyday. Today, I noticed something different.

I tried to overtake a slower car immediately after Chadni chock junction. However I was unsuccessful. The driver was using the middle of the two lanes combined. After a while I gave up and decided to follow this car till it goes away on a different rout. Suddenly, I noticed that the driver was waving one hand inside the car. I thought the driver must be an old friend. So, till the first traffic signal I kept guessing who that friend could be!

As the signal turned red; I managed to stop beside that car with little extra effort. I had a dekko and found no friend; it was a lady driver adjusting her hairs. As she drives, she lifts her hand from the gearshift, pulls her hairs, and returns her hand to gearshift. The process continues with variable frequency. So, this would appear as waving hand to the driver following this car.

The traffic signal turned green, I decided to enjoy the fun and followed her car till NAL stop signal. She continued with that till the next red signal where she did a overhaul; 5 minutes, 11 times was the count. I had my fun enough and turned right towards my office on NAL stop signal on Karve road. I wish she does not use both of her hands to adjust her hair while the car is in motion.
