Bedfords were first introduced to British India during World War II. This truck model and others similar to it stuck around, and since then they've been produced commercially throughout the country. But today, they’re not just functional and mundane - their paintings make them stand out.
Colorful trucks aren’t rare in India, and their designs aren’t random. Artists that specialize in painting these trucks put a lot of thought into the art form, making the vehicles a spectacle of beauty in India.
This Vox Borders episode looks at why truck art is such a staple in India.

Living in India all my life I was so used to these trucks that I never thought this can be strange to someone.
Same here
Same
As someone who’s never been to India, this is very strange - but also beautiful.

I don’t know for whom would this comment be:
But Swastikas are considered sacred in India, and have been from centuries. It has no relation with Nazism.
Shaunak Gokhale It has been used worldwide, surprisingly.
Swastikas actually meant very good beforeHitler misuser them.
Rita Gasper yeah!
Thank you. I am glad someone commented on this!
They actually meant something like happiness, fortune, long life, and something else. ( I forgot what the last one was)
I'm Indian and I've never paid so much attention to truck art. I just thought they were an everyday thing.

If you can drive an Indian truck on Himalayan Route, you can drive anywhere in the world.
If you can drive any vehicle period
@Sushmita Rathore but steeps of Himalayas are more dangerous. Btw I'm from Karnataka...
@darkdoctor2017 I don't think they would be as rough as the Himalayas. I don't have much info on this subject matter though.
If u can fly a truck, you can drive a ufo on land

The best I have seen, : sethji main aa gayi, saara diesel khaa gayi😂
I had to use google translate. Because my girlfriend from nepal wont tell me what it means. It means Setji came and all diesel wash consumed???
@@Dr0111 rough translation: "Sir, I have come. All diesel, I consumed". Sorry for bad London.
😂😂
Brilliant🤣🤣
@@Dr0111 we call the boss(here the owner of the trucks) as "seth" with a "ji" which is added as a sign of respect. The drivers of the trucks are usually not the owners of the trucks itself rather a person appoints drivers to go across the country in their trucks on mostly their expenses(including the cost of the diesel). The quote simply means "Boss I have come and ur diesel gone" something like that but this rhymes in hindi...so it kinda adds to the comedic effect.
The way he finished that circle at 4:11 ...so satisfying
We did not even see it being finished.
He is a god, like no one can draw a perfect circle

Mee Mopp I think it's just from many years of experience! Which personally I find equally as fascinating as the idea of it being an intrinsic talent he has. Or perhaps it's a combination of both?

It's really neat. Here in the US truckers would never be allowed to do that, its too unprofessional

Ikr
@Daniel Lim uh, when you eat pizza everyday...you will stop noticing the toppings....same way we see art on trucks everywhere so its common to us
it just means we dont appreciate the beauty in it
"Use Dipper at night" you misunderstood it. Dipper actually mean, flashing the headlamp by switching between lowbeam and highbeam.. so that it creates a flash kinda effect and attracts drivers concentration towards side mirrors.
Yup, he got it wrong, they also reciprocate, I use low beams, but when I see truckers with high beam, I use dipper and they low their beam as well so that I can see better.
@@pradeepchoudhary1627 oh yeah, it works that way too when we use with opposite vehicle.
Exactly!! An unwritten indian traffic convention followed by drivers!!
Was searching for this comment. Vox should pin this comment.
@@HoneyBadgerz This is actually a kind of unwritten truck traffic convention as it is very popular in other countries as well. The thing is, not a lot of small vehicle drivers know this. But I think the majority of truck drivers if not all in every country appreciate these actions.

We don't have that much of a difference, this land was divided because of 2 major parties arrogance and greed for power. You can believe it to be a religious angle but that was secondary the primary objective was whom should have the authority to rule this land.

As an Indian (I don't live in India), I never noticed how artistic trucks were. These trucks are so common I got used to them despite only visiting India 3 months a year.
Got loads to do Today and end up watching a 10 min video about art on trucks in India. The struggle is real..........

Hm. My maternal grandfather spent a long time traveling around new zealand in a house truck selling coffee at fairs, and his truck was brightly and ornately painted. He would also make regular pilgrimages to india, traveling around, seeing all his friends there and whatnot. I wonder if there's any connection between this truck art culture in India and the way he decorated his trucks
looks like there is one :)
He might've been inspired by his trip.

The best quote I've seen behind many trucks:"Come closer,but dont kiss me"(which actually means not to have large gap between vehicles at the same time not bump on the truck)
Not to mention the “Nazar” symbols like
Hanging flip flops or my favourite
“Buri Nazar waale Tera mooh Kaala”
ahahaha I always find the sight of a sole lonely battered slipper hanging and dangling at the back of the truck, between its back tires, so funny for some reason.
The most aesthetically pleasing charm to "ward evil off" is still the lemon and chili (pepper) dangling from a thread tho. The yellow of the lemon and the green of the chillies is so pretty together.

Hmmm... I would love to watch something on it too
I am an Indian but never really paid this much thought and attention to the brilliant art all over our trucks. This makes me appreciate and admire them much more. Thanks Vox for appreciating things even natives take for granted.

*6:44**:* The 'eagle' is *'Garuda'* , the animal consort' and 'vehicle mount' of the god Vishnu, who along with Brahma and Shiva, form the Hindu 'trium godhead', somewhat analogous to the Christian 'god the father', 'god the son', and 'god the holy Ghost'. Garuda is modelled on the image of the *'Brahmani kite'* .
Its a psychedelic truck, also inspired beatles nd played an important role in designing of trippy bus during hippie movement...
I'm geeking out so hard over how well this is produced!!!
when I first got to India, these arts fascinated me. Stayed there for 3 years, and everyday, it was a unique one...really loved them. But me being too lazy, didn't get a picture of any them.
The way vox covers everything is just amazing. And especially their animations, they gave so much attention to details in their animations in this video, it just brought a smile to my face.... All credits to the team as a whole who made this video.

Does Anybody Watched this same story on vice asia just few days ago?
Same here Bro was looking for this comment
Yup
Somehow people started taking interest in Truck art.
Vice Asia
It was done by drew binksy youtuber on Pakistan trucks.
This guy spends more time understanding and creating videos, say about a country or a topic, than actual locals!! Respect!🙏
yourmanwatson Where’d you get that from?
@yourmanwatson okay maybe one person in India believes that no one else does
This was such an incredibly edited & shot piece of film 🙌
Its probably mentioned else where in the comments but these really reminded me of narrow boat art in the UK. These people worked and lived in their boats and the art on them was an expression of their lives and a way to bring colour to an industrial landscape. Great job Johnny, going to enjoy this series.
Right from the start of this video I thought "I wish we had something like this in America" but then i remembered how in the 80's we did have subway graffiti, but instead of encouraging the artists we criminalized them and that makes me sad
graffiti isnt the same as the paintings on these trucks. These paintings are done by the rightful owners. India's metro railways arent painted like this. They have uniformed design and a section for advertisement which seperates itself from the design. NYC's subway is done on govt property and the graffiti was sprayed by spoiled brats and gangs who doesnt know how to respect public property.
While it's true that it was state property they were drawing on, I think a better solution would have been to have state sanctioned graffiti events, where these kids would be allowed to decorate the cars with their designs, that way fewer people would have entered the prison system and perhaps a new graffiti art system would have been formed in the city creating a new tourist industry.
@@tamarlambert6121 sorry bro but that would lead to undisciplined misuse of paints. Public property isnt for expressing your art. you should stay at home and draw or use your computer to express your ideas. or buy a vehicle and paint as you wish.
@@goodmorningwhyyugei7668 there was already undisciplined use of paints, I dont think there's a causal link to an increase in property defacement since the city was already saturated by graffiti artists especially given that the city at that time had little to no art programs in the public schools these kids were attending at the time. Making a NYU metro graffiti art program as far as I can see would only eliminate a measurable chunk of the taggers, especially given the rules of graffiti tagging (no marking another person's most recent artwork)
@@tamarlambert6121 just because there is doesnty mean we should promote it. What an owner does to his trucks is his choice. Subways and metros are govt properties. Indian metro doesnt have any such designs so your statement doesnt make sense. There are countless ways to express art. Respect public property.
4:11 🤯
I can't even draw a circle on paper.
This guy paints it free-hand 🙌
I can't even draw a circle using a compass. The ends never meet.
"Has mat pagli pyar ho jaayega" is also an art😂
It’s amazing that these trucks don’t get painted over, most trucks in the U.S are trashed with graffiti.
This has quickly grown to being one of my favorite episodes of Borders. The graphics really stepped up. Still can't get over how beautiful their calligraphy is.
Truck art has its roots in indian culture of ornamentation called as 'shringaar' before motorized transport, people decorated their elephants and horses and bullocks. In state of Rajasthan they paint bulls and camels. Concept of Ornamentation is Carried forward even today
I remember seeing these while in India. I miss India so much
It's been an year and you aren't still here
@Khushi Bidhuri sad life 😢
"Yeah they really take this horn mantra seriously here" love that one. Being a Indian I know how that feels
I can confirm it. Trucks is the first thing that amazes you when you come to India.
I can deny it !

If you ever do The Philippines, you should definitely do a piece on Jeepneys, especially before the WWII Jeep based ones disappear.

Never, NEVER stand casually on a divider.
I am Indian but i have to say that Pakistani truck art takes it to the next level!!!!
The extra space in the truck that looks like a bed is also used to transport people in places where there's no other form of travel. I travel with them pretty often. It's about 20 bucks for a 45 minute journey which is exceptionally cheap. And they're usually friendly people :)
It is useful but as they are unregulated please be careful.
@@NotAnotherKuromi Thanks for the concern! I've gotten pretty used to it since I moved from a big city to basically the middle of nowhere for uni.
Vox borders. This is without doubt the best vox video series
The eagle on these trucks may also stand for Garuda, the king of birds as per Hindu mythology. Garuda is also often regarded as Lord Vishnu’s vahan (vehicle).
Yess , Eagle here refers To Guru Gobind pet
as an indian i looked and admired trucks all my life i know all the meanings behind them , i used to go near the trucks with my dad as a kid and ask my dad on what they meant and get to know them more, i am 21 now and as an artist i have learned a lot from these trucks art-form actually
I see these around me everyday. thanks for making me realise how amazing and different these are. I will actually appreciate these when I see them now.
This series of Vox definitely deserves more views and prime time TV. It's such good production, editing and well researched.
the animation at 5:08 is so satisfying
How did he did that ? Means is there any software?
They just remove the background from text after capturing a screenshot and placed it over the text in video editing software.
its basically calling someone a dog its an insult
3:29 finally a foreigner who pronounced Punjab correctly.
Btw as an Indian it's common for me to see these trucks but i didnt know that they would look so beautiful for foreigners.😊

I've driven across Indian highways all my life and took for granted the colourful art on the countless trucks I've seen, so the fact that it would seem unusual to people never occurred to me.
Great video, Johnny! I've followed the Borders series from the very beginning and I was a little anxious and apprehensive when you were going to make videos on my home country (simply because it's hard for people who don't live here to understand the complexity and nuances, and the context in which events play out here), but I have thoroughly enjoyed this entire series on India. Looking forward to the last episode!
