@dailydriver If 'they' decide to incorporate communications into cars, there will be no way out. It will be impossible for us to avoid it, just as you have to upgrade your OS for fixes while some backdoors are introduced silently or even 'ad channels' are added. Can you really stop using Whatsapp, if everyone else is using it? | ||

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Idiot on a Superbike - This is one more category added to my "watch-out-for" list. I was overtaking a car on the NECE road today and doing 120kmph myself on the right most lane. I saw a Superbike (some Suzuki I guess) in my ORVM. Although 2-wheelers are designated to go on the left most lane on this road, I feel its ok for Superbikes as they are capable of high speeds. So it was in my mind to move left after I pass the car I was overtaking. But this moronic rider was either in a real hurry and couldn't wait even for that and overtook me from my right, riding on a small piece of road just enough to fit his bike. All this at 120+kmph speeds. And then in a couple of seconds, he vanished snaking through the many truck and cars. He had all the biking gear and everything alright, but he was an Idiot at the same time. ![]() Last edited by hemanth.anand : 24th March 2017 at 08:28. |

| ![]() Spotted this guy entering whitefield from KR Puram: ![]() ![]() I hope he will just drive into Container corporation premises and just stay tight till midnight. However, if this great man changes his mind, and say breaks for a coffee or snacks, or decides to take a U Turn after seeing ITPL, or just gives up somewhere and his pilot decides a career change, we can expect the entire ITPL area to come to a standstill. Not scaring anyone, but do keep a look out on google for this guy. He is big enough to make a mark on google maps and influential enough to ruin your day and call an early weekend. ![]() |

| ![]() I guess some BBMP officer was in trance one late night and decided to install two unscientific speed breakers on ORR, just after Rammurthy Nagar underpass going towards Hennur! These speed breakers are HUGE in size and looks like they just poured some tar and jelly and never really bothered to smoother or shape it! I was thinking it was some localites who had done it, but after seeing the reflectors neatly placed before the speed breaker makes me believe it is BBMP! But this is really intriguing, how could they come up with some things! Aren't they aware of it or is it the laziness to turn a blind eye to such shoddy piece of work!

| ![]() Something to cheer about the Bangalore Bad Traffic. Apparently bad traffic of Bangalore helped in preventing a terrorist attack on IIM in Bangalore. ![]() http://www.thenewsminute.com/article...-traffic-59242 |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Talking about NICE (or NECE) road, something that I saw this morning. Wondering how would these guys manage to get in this state. Some kind of metal from the van was thrown all around the road, causing some long pile up and the vehicles had to take the center pit to pass through. ![]() |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() The second gate plus road recently opened is already pretty popular. Any increase will only lower their overall earnings. |

| ![]() One side of the Doddanekundi flyover has been opened to traffic today. I was expecting some kind of unveiling ceremony but it hasn't happened as far as I know. Maybe they are testing with real traffic before officially announcing the opening of one carriageway. Actual benefit to traffic flow will be known tomorrow, since today is a holiday. |
