    Yes in a community about the problems cars pose, in a post about a bad driver.

    I don’t quite see how a persons bank account is relevant

        In a community about the problems that cars pose, we don’t give people a pass for being careless simply based on how shitty their car may be.

        (Also this photo was taken in India. That woman is richer than 80% of the population based solely on the fact that she owns a car)

          That is important context.

          More like 92%.

          So those mirrors would have been literally smacking into throngs of pedestrians on all sides if they weren’t folded.

            Well no. Even here in India we tend not to drive straight into throngs of pedestrians, nor do said pedestrians throng in the middle of the road. It’s just flat out irresponsible to drive with folded mirrors – even more than you’d think considering how horribly people drive/ride motorbikes here
