£50 says he will not be doing that again.

Three thoughts;

We are better off without his genes in the pool.

Why do they allow people on the roof of a train?

Allow? You've not been to India, have you? That was a quiet, clean,
well organised station by Indian standards.

Doesn't matter if I've been there or not. Allowing people to travel
on the roof of a train is a ****ing stupid idea anywhere in the
world.
You are coming from completely the wrong angle

Its not a question of not allowing them, its a matter of how do you
stop them

As I said in an earlier post, we manage to stop 300 million Americans &
700
million Europeans riding on top of trains.

Who is "we" ?

And when did we ever have a culture of riding on train roofs?

We also have a guide called the highway code which tells people how they
should drive on the roads

If you went to India and expected to be able to drive in accordance with
the HC, you would be dead within the hour, no high voltage power line
required

My friend is from Dehli. I thought he was joking when he told me about the
Indian Driving Test until I saw this.

Easiest driving test in the world ?

When I took my driving test in Indonesia I just had to sign the test
paper with the answers already filled in have my photo taken and hand
over the buckshish

actually getting into a car was not involved
