Bengaluru commutes shared a worrying experience on social media, accused harassment and intimidation by a group of cars at the metro station. According to Reddit, the situation escalated after the commute decided to book a rapid ride instead of taking a car, leading to open threats and tense confrontation similar to mobs.
According to the post, the moment he left the metro station and began to book Rapido, the car aggressively confronted him and demanded that he canceled the reservation and instead took his car.
“Oi, Madbed’s book! Nane Karkond Hogtini, Baa!” (Remember, I’ll take you), the driver allegedly said in a noisy tone. The commuters ignored the demand and continued to reserve the ride. However, when the driver arrived, the situation arrived, the situation escalated, with several car drivers screaming at protest. One of them allegedly shouted, “Adeng hogbidtiya! Naanu nodtini!” (Will you go with him? See you!) Is it clear that he doesn’t like it.
Frustrated aggression confessed to reaction by overturning them – negotiations he later regretted. But this only intensified the situation. The same car driver reportedly overtook the Rapido bike, blocked their journey and began to release direct threats. Soon, they were surrounded by a group of automotive drivers, along with two men on scooters, escalating hostility by intimidating cooling.
The user claimed that the group threatened physical damage and warned, “We will cut your hand.” Reportedly they continued and said, “If we decide, we will make your life hell,” and even threatened the mobility of commuting in the city by saying, “You will not be able to walk in this city.” Another worrying statement was that the group reported little fear of enforcement and allegedly said, “Even if you know that DC, SP, nothing will happen to us. We are local, we will destroy confusion.”

The commuting commuting immediately dialed 112 for police assistance and scored emergency challenges to further increase the situation. But when the police arrived, their response unexpectedly changed. Instead of dealing with aggression, officers allegedly rebuked commuting for his reaction.
“When the police called back, instead of controlling me the situation, they cursed me to show my middle finger (which is fair, but also… Heckling?),” He read the post.
What was even more concerned about the commuters was the apparent camaraderie between the police and the car drivers. According to the post, officers had carelessly informed the drivers to retreat, but not before he allegedly noted, “Yerad Bitt Kalsi.” (Strike him and send him away).
The post caused a rush of reaction. The user wrote: “They could all be noisy, but their brain is smaller than their peas.”
Others suggested: “Man, this is a bad situation to be in. Put it on X and mark some cops and larger handles along with TV9 Canada. May there be a wider audience in this situation.”
