Trucks


The trip back to Vapi on Tuesday morning took much longer than expected. The backup of trucks waiting to go through toll booths, checkpoints, and accident scenes was even longer than usual. But it did give a chance to appreciate their artwork.

Waiting at the Gujarat checkpost.

Artwork and other decor on trucks.
Here's a link to a Flickr gallery of trucks:

The contents of the trucks -- especially the tankers -- gives one pause. Pivaloyl chloride, epichlorohydrin, ethylene oxide, and anhydrous ammonia (among many others) makes it difficult to forget that India was home to the horrific chemical disaster in Bhopal in 1984.
