Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Did a quick run over the weekend Blr-Mys-Blr. Most of the speed breakers are gone now and the authorities have managed to level off the road where ever these speed breakers existed. I could count only 2 of the old piddly speed breakers all along the route. I am sure they should also be gone in a few days time. However the humongous vehicle breakers still exist in Mandya . What was unusual was the number of Highway Patrol vehicles and the interceptors spotted during my drive back yesterday morning. I counted 5 interceptors while driving back to Blr. However these were stationed along the other side towards Mysore. So people driving during the day time, keep a look out. I saw 2 Audi's and a Merc pulled over by them cops at 2 places. |

Yes, I think they were the same. In couple of places they were on the straight stretches and I was around 80-90 Kmph. So, I won't be surprised If I receive a ticket. |

Nopes not really. These Sumo's were just stickered with Highway Patrol and dint have any speed guns mounted on them or atleast lets say the ones I spotted never had speed guns. |

BTW, looks like Blore-Mysore road will be blocked on August 13. Heads up if you're travelling on that day, avoid SH17! Source : Deccan Herald ![]() | |

| ![]() Did a quick BNG-MYS round trip yesterday and saw that there are new road humps which are being constructed near the Channapatana town on both sides of the road. Be careful as they have not yet painted the humps. The sliding barricades is getting eroded I guess , by both nature and human pilferage. |

| ![]() Last month,I had a near miss near Madhur. Barricade was put on a curve in such a way that,if a vehicle is in front,you cannot see it.I was trying to overtake the BMTC bus. I stopped the car when I saw the barricade,but too late.The celerieo skid for a good 50 meters and hit the barricade (due to wet road).At that moment a villager came out giving excuses,then I understood that these are not legal.These barricades are kept to let people come out to the highway from the village road on their bikes or bullock carts. Good job! What can I say? My car just got a dent! I lost couple of thousands in repair.The time is not far ahead,when we will be reaching from Mysore to Bangalore in 4 hours through this road. |
