![]() ![]() Last I heard was that the truck was removed by 8:30am, but the damage was already done by then. Traffic piled up beyond HMT theatre, mathikere and other areas. | |

This has become a big nuisance now and I have noticed, it has been increasing quite a bit as well. No helmets and with a heavy guy sitting behind to transfer weight, these guys think they own the road. And of course, a part of the gang right behind to take videos. The other day I was waiting at the beginning of ITC flyover for around ten minutes and saw two bikes going to and fro on the flyover doing wheelies as many as 5 times.

![]() Last week I was coming from the City RS at around 0430Hrs, and the wheelie gang was there on Hosur Road as well. The taxi driver with pride said that they were all "hamare log" (our people). If these youngsters can do this at 0430Hrs in the morning, I guess there is no concept of "parental control" in their families. Their own parents seems NOT to be bothered about what their sons do in the middle of the night or where they go in the morning. | |

I suggest you go through the Facebook comments. There were two individuals who were supporting the person who did the assault (one tried with ridiculous explanation, and another tried to give vague legal threats and started tagging other groups etc.). Any ways, I would wait to see the report which says that the accused in this case was arrested, and punishment meted out to him. |

| ![]() Last night at 8:00PM my ride from Whitefield to Home was so peacefull! Absolutely no traffic and I reached home in Half hour which usually takes little more than an hour. I believe the reason for this is the Ola and Uber were not plying on the roads yesterday ? If this is true then we know the reason for the sudden spike in Traffic on the roads !! |

A new entrance (third) to the City Railway station is now coming up on Gubbi Thondappa Road near Shanthala Silks, this should help ease the traffic situation around the Bangalore City Railway Station and hopefully provide some parking space as well.

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Traffic jam from Marathahalli till Eco space thanks to waterlogging near Bellandur flyover. Also, waterlogging in Kadubeesinahalli underpass, manageable for all kinds of vehicles, but be cautious of wave created by other vehicles. An indica did a speed test at underpass creating a huge wave which hit my Alto till radiator level. Thankfully apart from steam and sound no damage. |

| ![]() Looks like the ORR gods have unleashed their wrath along with the rain. Jammed beyond Marathahalli Bridge. I just escaped this mess at 530PM. Now its a goner. Witnessed the heaviest rain in agara. On the flyover it felt like I was flying through the clouds - But I was still at 20kmph ![]() |
