Small mini-vans and autorickshaws are the preferred public transportation option for short distances in rural India. Often, they're the only option. People congregate at pick up points and wait for a vehicle going in their general direction. Vehicles wait until they're full - very full - before starting off. Travel is cheap and, compared to the state transportation buses, very convenient.
Luckily, we can afford to hire a car and driver to take us around when there are no friends or family available. I could probably drive in rural India, but it would be slow going and stressful. I can't even dream of driving in a city.

I would want to be on the top of the vehicle instead of crammed inside with everyone else!
