I'm back with one of my auto related experiences :)
This was in the aftermath of the change in auto fares, all the meters have to be re-calibrated.One morning in an auto having an electronic meter with old calibration
Me:Innu haLe meter ide. Yaavaga change maadthira?
[The meter is of old calibration. When are you going to get it modified?]
Auto driver: Ondu RTO alli dinakke 6 auto-meter maatra change madodu. Adakke tumba nidhana aagtide. Adhbere yeradu saavira rupaayi kottu change madasbeku madam!
[6 autos are calibrated in each RTO per day. Hence the process of re-calibration is taking up lot of time. Also, it costs around 2k to get it re-calibrated! ]
Me: Ashtondu duddu yaake?
[ Why does it have to cost that much?]
Auto driver: Maamuli meter na entu nooru rupaayalle madkodthare. Aadre electronic meter alli IC ella change madbekalla, adakke yeradu saavira rupaayi!!
[ The older meters can get re-calibrated at only a hundred bucks. Since the electronics meters have IC's in them, it costs more!! ]
