While sunroofs and panoramic glass roofs have become increasingly common in modern cars, spotting a similar feature on an auto-rickshaw naturally amused viewers.

The passengers themselves appear equally amused by the feature, turning what could have been an ordinary auto ride into a memorable experience.
