@ChristinMP_ @OfficialBMRCL Would be better if they outsource the Planning and Project management work🙏 operations wise they are doing OK

🚨 Bengaluru Metro may outsource all Blue Line operations, maintenance @OfficialBMRCL moneycontrol.com/news/india/ben…

@Tejasvi_Surya The FlyOver ends at the Signal,the traffic is anyway piling up not sure why right turns are blocked,in the morning allow right turns for vehicle coming from JP Nagar side,in the evening allow right turn for vehicle coming from the flyover towards Jayanagar.

Bengaluru should oppose the Karnataka Government’s obsession with double-decker flyovers which will harm the city beyond repair. We have already seen this in Jayanagar. Deputy CM D. K. Shivakumar must immediately drop this reckless idea. A flyover should solve congestion, not simply shift it 500 metres ahead. Bengaluru has already seen this mistake. Take the Ragigudda flyover. Instead of solving traffic, it has merely pushed the bottleneck elsewhere and created new pressure points around Jayanagar, especially near the Raghavendra Swamy Mutt junction. A beautiful, walkable, well-planned neighbourhood like Jayanagar has been slowly spoiled by contractor-driven infrastructure decisions instead of citizen-centric urban planning. We have repeatedly asked authorities to find a scientific fix around the Raghavendra Swamy Mutt junction, but I fear many of these proposals are only band-aids over a deeper planning failure. And now, instead of learning from these mistakes, the State Government wants to repeat them across the city with more double-decker corridors along new Metro lines. This defeats the very purpose of mass public transport. Metro is supposed to reduce private vehicle dependence, not incentivise more cars by building more flyovers underneath it. If you keep making cities easier for cars, people will keep buying more cars. That is not mobility reform, that is policy confusion. We have made our opposition clear. The proposed Vega City Mall double-decker corridor will be strongly opposed. I have personally organised multiple citizen consultations with Metro officials and the erstwhile BBMP authorities where residents have clearly and consistently rejected this approach. What is even more frustrating is that Metro Phase 3 implementation is getting delayed because of this unnecessary insistence, despite Central Government approval already being in place. Bengaluru does not need more cosmetic flyovers. It needs better buses, faster Metro execution, seamless last-mile connectivity, walkable streets, and governance that respects urban planning over ribbon-cutting politics. Please drop this double-decker madness before we permanently damage the city.

Cars parked on both sides of Chuncha gatta Main road opposite DK Chicken.. this will cause issues in the already busy and small Chunchagatta main road. @blrcitytraffic

Sarakki Signal is choked from Sarakki market towards Yelachenhalli side.had to wait for 4 Signal cycle just to cross. @blrcitytraffic

@ravikeerthi22 Ideally they should have given a ramp near jayadeva to the Bannerghatta road.. Vehicles going towards JP nagar would use that..the number of vehicles ending up in Raghavendra Mutt Signal would reduce

Police seek additional openings to improve safety on double-decker stretch After completing the trial run by allowing vehicles to use the remaining portion of the double-decker flyover (HSR to Ragigudda), the Bengaluru Traffic Police (BTP) have written to the BMRCL, flagging the absence of emergency response access and recommending several measures to curb possible accidents. thehindu.com/news/cities/ba…

@caleb_friesen Chunchagatta main road

taking recommendations for which Bengaluru footpath to walk next

@blrcitytraffic Traffic in Chunchagatta Main road, towards Konankunte

@DriveSmart_IN @sumanthchandar Instead of mandating AC for trucks..the govt should make it so that a truck with full load has to travel at minimum 40-50kmph in gradients..

@sumanthchandar Trucks struggle to go in upward inclined road and that's what causes the jams.

NICE road should be renamed as Not-so-NICE Road. Trucks occupying all lanes moving slowly not allowing other vehicles to move and some morons overtaking left right and centre putting all drivers at risk. Due to this we can’t have safe breaking distance or driving in clusters. For this torture we pay hefty toll charges: Tumkur Road to E-City, it is 306 rupees for a 43 KM journey which is 7.1 rupee per KM Cars and two wheelers should either get a discount for the torture we need to go through using this road along with trucks or get at least one lane to move freely @motordave2 @DriveSmart_IN @ChristinMP_ @dabir

@email2vimalraj @Mahalankeshwar2 @WF_Watcher Then u might as well compare public transport of Singapore with that of Bangalore and then comment !

@Mahalankeshwar2 @WF_Watcher Nothing it just works. Look at Singapore

Handed my laptop to IT for formatting—was told it’d take 4–5 hours. Found a spot outdoors and watched CARS arriving into the campus. •Nearly all had just the driver, and many showed up only to mark attendance. Despite the metro being just a 3-minute walk away, people still prefer driving. No wonder the roads are jammed. •It’s time companies step up and promote public transport—employees won’t change just because the government or traffic police says so.

@IamAnujKulkarni @abhi_kulkarni85 @nachiket1982 @TopDriverIndia @motordave2 @DriveSmart_IN @punekarnews I'm not sure why people want to wait with their bikes? Like park the bike after the shelter or before the shelter and then stand under the flyover.. it would take considerably less space!

I was stuck on Bengaluru-Mumbai highway yesterday near Pashan/Sus exit for 20 minutes. I was taken aback by the reason for the jam. What are your views on this?🤔 #PuneRains #PuneTraffic @abhi_kulkarni85 @nachiket1982 @TopDriverIndia @motordave2 @DriveSmart_IN @punekarnews

@OutOfContextKan @Madhusudhan_s Check this out

@DriveSmart_IN Bro though he has "SUV" and can handle the offroad 😅

Location: Rajahmundry, AP Kia Sonet overtook using road shoulder, lost traction on loose gravel & crashed! Every driver thinks they can do it until they crash. Do not overtake using the road shoulder !! Good that dashcam driver is at a safe distance.

@harrysutrave @DriveSmart_IN Really?You don't see the car straddling between lanes?he over corrected when he went to the right shoulder and then ended up in the left shoulder of the road.

@DriveSmart_IN Looks like Aquaplaning led to the accident. Speed should be very less while raining however it is difficult on a highway. Also the Dashcam driver has almost no visibility as he's rarely using his wipers...

Distracted Driving? x.com/uneaz/status/1…

@PowerDrift The front looks like Purosangue and the rear DBX?

After registering a jolting start with the SU7, Xiaomi has now unveiled its first electric SUV - YU7! ⚡️The Tesla Model Y might be in serious trouble. Here's why: ➡️ Offered in three variants: Standard, Pro and Max ➡️ Standard: RWD, 96.3 kWh LFP battery pack with 835km range, 320 PS ➡️ Pro: AWD with 770km range, dual-motor setup that puts down 496 PS ➡️ Max: 101.7 kWh NCM battery pack with 760km range, puts down 690 PS! ➡️ 0-100kmph in just 3.3 seconds! ➡️ Top speed of 253kmph ➡️ drag coefficient of Cd 0.245 ➡️ 16.1-inch Central touchscreen with 1.1-metre ultra-wide projected display ➡️ NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor in-vehicle computing platform This or the Model Y, which electric SUV would you bet your money on if they land on our shores?

@BBMPofficial You should suggest what alternative roads the people can use instead of just saying use alternative roads!

"Traffic Advisory" Due to heavy flooding, Hosur road is temporarily closed between Silkboard and Rupena Agrahara. The elevated flyover is also closed. Commuters are advised to use alternate roads. #BBMP #BBMPCares #BengaluruRains #BengaluruRain #bbmpchiefcommissioner

@omjasvinMD I think the tunnel road was started in the wrong city..

Dramatic visuals from #Chennai. Car goes underground after road caves in. #OMR.

@ChristinMP_ @OfficialBMRCL Concentrate on starting Yellow line and completing other lines faster..this Vanity can wait.. honestly BMRCL has it's priorities wrong!

🚨 Bengaluru: After 71% fare hike, BMRCL invites tender for illumination of Metro pillars @OfficialBMRCL moneycontrol.com/news/business/…

@rishitaakhanna @XpressBengaluru @NammaBengaluroo @BDACommissioner @bengalurupost1 @Madhusudhan_s check this out

Over 300 plot owners in Banashankari have been barred from building homes at their sites as multiple blocks face litigation. While BDA layout was formed 22 years ago, the land is now claimed by original landlords @XpressBengaluru newindianexpress.com/amp/story/stat…

@DriveSmart_IN Another suggestion would be before any junction,median gap or a blind curve..take the foot of the accelerator and cover the brake just in case something comes up..once u cross the junction/gap or curve accelerate.

Source : Instagram Indian drivers are always afraid that someone will occupy their space ! This fear along with carelessness makes them do risky moves like the White Ecosport !! This is where we have to play the mind game with Indian drivers by improving our anticipation and reducing such close calls !! There's enough evidence for the ecosport to do like that. Just a mild honk early to prevent him from doing that,would work. Cover brakes as backup but don't take it till the last moment.

@DriveSmart_IN I have made this habit.. every 2 mins i check the right orvm and the irvm.. make a note of things behind me their speed etc..before an overtake or lane change i cross check and see where the vehicle are.. this way I'm not caught by surprise and i can plan my moves nicely.
