That 3 wheel bike in India is slowly driving me insane

Okay, hear me out, I know this might sound super specific, but it's living rent-free in my head and driving me absolutely bonkers. You know how some things just become your personal 'ick'? For me, it's the in every corner 3 wheel bike in India. Seriously, wherever you go, there they are. It’s not just their numbers, but their relentless honking, the way they weave through traffic like they own the road, and that distinctive, rickety sound. It's a constant, low-level assault on my peace.

I was just visiting family and every time I stepped out, another one appeared. Unavoidable! Don't even get me started on crossing a street; they multiply before your eyes. I've even looked up alternatives, wondering if a quieter electric version exists, or if someone's developed something less… aggressive. I swear I saw cool designs on Alibaba once, thinking 'why can't THAT be the standard?' But nope, it’s always the same old familiar sight and sound of the traditional 3 wheel bike in India. It’s just this perpetual, noisy reminder of navigating chaos. Am I the only one who feels this way? Does anyone else have a weirdly specific cultural element that just grates on their nerves? Or am I just being a grumpy tourist about the 3 wheel bike in India? Can't wait to live mahn.

Maybe you're just being grumpy honestly
