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?
Yea, this happens here but I think its a problem in every big city.
What bullshit. Dont comment if u don't know facts or haven't been to other big cities
What bs? Been to pune, mumbai and Hyderabad, faced this shii there too, don’t act like all cities are saints except Bengaluru, not defending Bengaluru but its not just in here

Auto drivers are very rude charge unnecessarily extra and later complain Ola and Uber is taking their market.
In mumbai you go by meter in Auto. So for 2KM we have to hardly pay 50 Rupees. But here in Bangalore I had to pay 160 rupees once for 2 km.
Total failure and negligence of Bangalore police 👮♂️ I don't even know one person in my friend circle who feels opposite than all the things am sharing in this post. You can't even commute in bangalore.
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 complet...
Auto drivers are suffering, riders are suffering, company is in losses, shareholders are suffering. Who is winning ? Lol
Bangalore’s auto rides are getting out of control, and today I got a front-row seat to this insane bullshit.
So, here I am, minding my business, booking an auto on Ola. The moment it arrives, I’m literally walking out the door, and th...
