Why Pune rickshaw-wallahs are Androids from a parallel universe.

Alright, so I've been meaning to do this since a while. I go to Pune twice a year and I can't help but notice the fact that the rickshaw-wallahs there are not human.

Reasons-

1) They charge you an amount which would be much relevant in the future. (like considering all the fares rising thing)
2) They don't listen to you. They make you feel like you aren't a customer, but you're just some pile of meat stacked in the back seat.
3)  They don't give a shit if it's a one way.
4) They get into the one way and refuse to budge even if a huge truck shows up from the correct direction. You feel like you're in The Terminator 2 and the guyin front of you is Arnold.
5) They don't give a shit if the traffic signal shows any colour whatsoever.
6) They don't give a shit if you are crossing the road.
7) They don't give a shit.
8) They can look through you.
