Bengaluru traffic is a phenomenon in itself. The situation is so bad that people carry vegetables in their cars so that they can peel them when stuck in traffic. And of course, you tend to get hungry when you’re stuck for 39816271 years, right? So some also order food while they are stuck and when their order finally arrives, they realize that they haven’t moved an inch! People complete their PhDs, couples grow old together, and professionals go from interns to CEOs while being stuck in the infamous Bengaluru traffic.
To top it all off, a woman named Prakriti took to X to share how the traffic situation in Bengaluru can be used to go out on a date. The idea is for two people to meet and catch a cab, autorickshaw or bus together and travel to their favourite spot. They can get to know each other while they are stuck in traffic.
Have a look:
Bangalore dating tip: Try meeting earlier and commute together to your favourite spot during peak traffic hours. This way, you’ll get to spend much more time together and you’ll also find out if they have any anger issues.

It’s not a bad idea, to be honest. If you do get stuck in traffic together, you’ll get to know so much about the other person, like how patient they are or how easily they get annoyed and angry!
Here’s how people responded to this idea:
this is my litmus test – how are we together in traffic 😂

If meeting a prospective marriage alliance, get them to drive during peak hours and find out their tolerance levels.

Silk Board junction, waiting for that forward inch in a car with a companion. Frustration, anger, rest room need and the arguments (or discussions if you like) can be never ending. If it happens near full moon day sun set, the full moon bloom up, suddenly the mood changes!— SanthanamVaidya (@sanvai) October 9, 2023
And when you don’t reach your spot, swap that traffic pit stop into a makeshift cute date 🙂

Anger caused by traffic is legitimate. Its unlike anger issues. Give him traffic anger pass
