Yeah. Shifted to Hyderabad with my new 2 wheeler. And guess what 2 times got into accidents. I don't really understand if i am a bad driver or is it the other guy..

Incident 1. 
Was on 2nd lane and had to make a turn to other side of road. But my judgement told me that i won't be able to because of traffic. So i decided to move to 3rd lane and stop. And when there was only a single bike far away in 1st lane near to 2nd lane. Was doing a sort of 45 degree, and the single bike with 2 ppl hit my scooty near foot rest in the 2nd lane. I fucking don't know how. Yeah i had given indicator.


Incident 2.
After a traffic check point was on 2nd lane mid. A car suddenly shifted from 1 st lane to 2nd lane with indicator and nearly his tail hitting my front. Dodged and got shifted to 3rd lane. Now the indicator off and the guy suddenly shifted to 3rd lane and braked. Boom my scooty hits his back. There was a tata car behind my back horned. I couldn't even recall when he stopped. It was so sudden and the driver was looking to left as if he don't know where be is headed..

Just can't understand whats wrong with me or the ppl are such bad drivers.

Pls comment your view.

I was at a friends place and it suddenly started raining heavily. I had to reach my girlfriends place ASAP. She was already very angry that I was not spending enough time with her. The problem was that I was not getting any auto on Uber or Rapido.

I stopped an auto and asked it for a ride. He quoted Rs 800 for a 4km ride. I was like, "Are you crazy?" 
I somehow negotiated it down to Rs. 500. But it made me wonder why is this city like this.

Like everyone is trying to scam you. Every one is a grifter, from your landlord to auto wallahs to the cops.

Have you faced such things in this city?

Why do people take advantage of you in Bangalore?

Mini rant: 50 mins from Indiranagar to Koramangala; so fucking done with this

Bangalore's infra has been crumbling under the weight of its population growth. I believe that yesterday's traffic jam was just a trailer and situation will only worsen with time. 

Seriously contemplating moving out of Bangalore after being here for last 5 years. 

People who moved out, where did you move? And are you happy now with your decision ?

People who moved out of Bangalore, which city did you move to ?

People in Bengaluru are ready to pay 75k for a 3bhk, 50k for a 2bhk in famous builder societies. Rents for apartments which were 35k before 2021 are demanding 55k onwards nowadays. Why are people tolerating this shit ? Why are people still opting to stay in so called societies? 
Gyms hardly 5 PC people use 
Swimming pools are used occasionally 
Sports facilities are also not very commonly used. 

Why are people paying such large premiums for amenities they don't really use ?

Crazy rents in Bengaluru

Damn, let me tell you how Ola has messed up the auto rickshaw industry! They came in acting all fancy, promising convenience and fair prices. But what do we get? Overcharging like crazy! Their surge pricing during peak hours is a complete rip-off. They take advantage of our desperation and squeeze every penny out of us. And who suffers the most? The hardworking folks who rely on auto rickshaws every day.

But it doesn't stop there. Ola's profiteering tactics have destroyed the earning potential of auto rickshaw drivers. They used to have control over their fares and make a decent living. Now, Ola dictates the prices and leaves the drivers scraping for scraps. It's just not fair! They've disrupted the whole system, and not in a good way. The drivers are struggling, and we passengers are getting ripped off left and right. Ola, you've turned a once reliable and affordable mode of transportation into a nightmare. Shame on you!

Ola didn't disrupt , it destroyed

Looking forward to starting WFO. 
How long are you guys commuting to the office in a two wheeler?

 I've been renting pre COVID and now planning to go for a 45km-45km ride.

Which bike (scooter/motorcycle) and health issues like back pain?

Commuting to office in two wheeler

I am recently gonna shift to Kalyan nagar near Manyata tech park with 2 of my college mates. Both of them have their offices in Manyata tech park and I have my office near forum mall, Koramangala. The reason we are shifting from SG Palya, near christ to Kalyan nagar is that they both have their offices 5 days a week while I have to go only twice a week. My commute is gonna be 14km long one way. We searched for flats in cox town, frazer town, Kodihalli, but either the flats were not available for bachelors or were going way over the budget. At the end of a 3 days long hunt, we found a decent place to stay in kalyan nagar’s, T Krisna Reddy layout. What are the multiple ways to make my commute more efficient. People of blr who already have been commuting please share some advice.

Intended meeting time > extra 30 mins for traffic > extra 30 min for finding a mode of transport > download 5 apps for finding transport

Yes, am new to Mumbai. And Mumbai traffic is the worst I have ever seen anywhere in India. I know Blr is infamous for traffic and I have been there too, but Mumbai is just miles apart (no pun intended) when it comes to the unpredictability of going from point A to point B. Part of the problem is I believe are the locals which generate very little to no revenue at all (practically seen :P ). And the other part being the geography of Mumbai itself. But given the conscious and rich gentry of Mumbai, there have been no hue and cry in regards to improving this scenario. One needs a good 1 hour to travel just a mere distance of 4-5 kms. I mean, seriously what is going on in Mumbai?! Why aren’t the educated and powerful sections making no moves to solve this?
