Twitterati Meltdown: Pain Galore in Bangalore Over Traffic Furore

The awkward moment when a bullock cart actually moves faster than the car you’re in.

It’s a terrible time to be living in Bangalore. It’s an even worse time to be following someone from Bangalore on Twitter. The complaints about traffic have been pouring in and they cover a vast scale from humorous, to raging, moving to helpless and finally stopping at suicidal.

It’s tragic that the IT capital of the country hasn’t put in smart technology to diffuse traffic jams yet, but let’s look at what Bangaloreans have to say!

If you're in Bangalore and not seeing any traffic on road, congratulations you've reached to Chennai.

Right, gotta go. There’s a traffic jam in Bangalore I am supposed to be a part of.

The reason Bangalore is good for startups is because people get a lot of Ideas while they wait in Traffic.

If I had a rupee for everytime someone complained about being stuck in traffic, I'd be a VC for a startup in Koramangala by now 😂
