9 Types Of Rickshaw Walas In Pakistan Everyone Has Dealt With


If you’re lucky, you’ll find a shareef rickshaw wala to take you to your destination, and if not well let’s say you’re in hell. Fighting and arguing with a rickshaw wala is not the coolest thing, and one cannot keep their calm. Following are the different types of rickshaw wala you’ll see out there:

1. The DJ wala


No tameez at all. Having ladies sitting at the back, but the music will still be so loud.

2. The cellulars


Always on the phone, and you’ll freak out thinking that he’s calling his gang to rob you.

3. The skeptics


They’ll take you through the weirdest streets you’ve never been to.. and you sit there with a pounding heart.

4. The ‘taaroo’


They won’t get their eyes off of you, and they’ll adjust their mirrors to have a good look at you. The only thing you can do is hide your face.

5. The lazy bottoms


No matter where you want to go, either it’s a 5 min destination or a 30 min, they’ll refuse to take you.

6. The hagglers


They’ll argue for money.. even over 10 rs! In the end, you’re so infuriated, that you choose to go with another rickshaw wala.

7. The non-stoppers


You wave your hand to stop them, and they just pass by ignoring you, as if you’re invisible. Huh!

8. The racers


So basically it’s not a rickshaw, it’s a freaking car from Fast and Furious-not caring who’s on the road.



9. The shareef guys



These rickshaw wala will take you right to your destination, without saying a word, without making a chutney out of your brain.

Are there any more types of rickshaw wala you’ve witnessed?

Most were Indian rickshaws. Pakistani ones are usually always decorated. :D Indians are plain Janes.

Animals have better luck getting a rickshaw than you do


At least the cow will get to where it needs to go before I do.
 
there are so many rickshaws in Lisbon, they are trying to control 'em.

Indian cities are incomplete without Auto rickshaws.... You can find them everywhere

You must be a big shot then. Auto Rickshaw itself was a luxury for me. For most part I took the bus.
 
Racers, especially the ones that own a Qingqi.
