Wave a wad at the cops and they let you pass irrespective of the time, If the cop is a tough nut and you really want to drive down the sigur ghat, tell them you are going to your estate at mavaunallah.All fails, the Gudalur route is pretty neat now and is a part of the NH17 uptill Kakunallah, which is the border post.The road from Gundalpet to Bandipur is horrendous and will strain your lower part and everything asociated with it.
They have also uprooted the huge banyan trees and is now an eyesore, I was driving up last week and was wondering if anybody would be interested in making the road green again, I mean, planting some saplings on the route. This is just an idea, The mind whirrs when you are driving alone.
