Overview

We see them everyday. They take us to our jobs and movies in the heat of the day and safely drop us home in the late of the night. Despite how essential they are to the functioning of a city, we know so little about them. India is home to three-quarters of the world's auto-rickshaws. In a country with a population of 1.3 billion where life is lived at a non-stop speed, respect is hard earned.
