We have mentioned Indian truck art (made up phrase) before in the blog where truck drivers have their vehicles decorated with discordantly beautiful art and metal festooning (word?). Well, in Calcutta, the bus drivers seem to have the same affinity. Every bus that we saw, with no exception, had some design painted on the back of their bus. Now, since I have to think that the drivers do not own the buses that they are working on, it makes me think that the bus company pays for this. What is their incentive? Oh, and by the way, the designs on the buses were all different and kind of personal. I don't know what to make of all of that.
