The saga of Tata Nano

My dad has always had something for new things,especially electronics and cars,when Tata launched the indigenous car Indica,more than a decade back,he was one of the first people to book it,and when the Tata Nano was announced,he was again one of the first people to book it..
Now,the nano has been marketed as the cheapest car and it has been targeted for the middle class who use bikes and cant afford a car,but there are a few problems with it which u realise only after driving on the road for a while..
When u 1st enter the car,u will realise that its surprisingly roomy for car which looks so tiny,there is a lot of leg room for all fourseats..
But if u are going to drive,thats a different story,first of all,the clutch,brake and accelerator seem to protrude in the air(the engine is in the rear,so there is no engine in the front),when you are driving it,you will realise that the weight of ur leg falls directly on the clutch with the result that you end up pressing the clutch without realising it,and another thing is that since its a light weight car,if u stop the car without applying the brakes firmly,even on a flat surface,it will move back,this is what makes it difficult to drive in a stop and go traffic,where you have to keep shifting from accelerator to brake constantly,also,if you have an ac,it will keep shutting the engine down when you slow down a little,the horn is another thing,it sounds like a scooter and nobody even hears it in the traffic, thats why i dont prefer to drive the nano,i rather prefer to drive a second hand maruti which is easier to control,infact for all those families which are in need of a car,a secondhand car which is well maintained is better than a brand new nano!!
P.s: while my mom(who has been driving since more than 15yrs) was driving in the nano today,in peak traffic,the car car got hit by 2 buses simultaneously,one from behind and one from the side,it seems,the car jus shut down cos of the ac in the middle of the road,and before mom could restart the engine,it started moving backwards,and got hit by the bus,while anotjer scraped it from the right while overtaking it,luckily,mom is safe,but it got me thinking..since the nano has it its engine on the back,and it tends to move back in traffic,isnt there a chance of it getting crushed easily?how safe is the nano on the indian roads?and what do we do with the nano which we already have?
