One of my biggest frustrations are the anarchic auto-rickshaw drivers in Delhi, they are very rude almost never have change, moan alot and most of the time try to scam you.
Beware of the fare meters that 'dont work' in auto rickshaws- one of Delhi's popular modes of getting around. The rates to be charged have been revised many a time to keep up with the cost of petrol, and the meters have been switched to electronic ones now, but there still is some confusion about it all... Auto drivers have been taking advantage of the situation and will often tell you that their meter dosent work, and charge you a steep fare The best way to deal with this- before you get into an auto, ask someone about the likely/ usual fare for a specific distance. The Delhi government is looking into the matter and will have it sorted soon i think, but till such time.
