Transport in Delhi - Auto-rickshaws
The auto rickshaws (sometimes called Auto) are an
important and popular means of public transportation in
Delhi, as they charge a lower fare than taxis. Hiring an
Auto in Delhi is very tricky, as few auto-drivers accept
standard meter charges. The typical method is to haggle
for an agreeable rate. It is typical for the rate to be
almost doubled after 11 p.m. With the introduction of
electronic meters, the tamperability of meters has
reduced, and a stronger jurisdiction for a sanctioning
body has forced more auto-rickshaws to comply with the
meter-based charging scheme. However, it is common for
the meters of auto-rickshaws to be "broken" or
disregarded by their drivers. This rarely is a source of
conflict because the fares charged are modest,
particularly by western standards.
