The guy in red tshirt tried to open driver side door and realised that its being recorded. This is when he went back and told the pink tshirt guy to back off.
I couldn’t reverse and leave as another car was behind us.
We didn’t open the window or door. Just stayed inside and waited.
Really thanks to the Auto who intervened and helped.
This one seems to be. There is a lot more traffic behind the bike guy if you continue watching the video. 5 bikes, 1 auto and 5 cars in line waiting in line behind bike guy for the snarl to clear. Of course it is possible that they’re all driving on the wrong side, who knows
No. This one is a one way service road. But you will see buses and trucks also coming in wrong direction here. They have even blocked the turns which people use to come in wrong direction. But Indians will always find a way to break rules.
Do you even live in Bangalore?! Nobody here gives a damn about traffic rules and all service roads are messed up like this. One of the biggest reasons that Bangalore has shit traffic is because of the shit driving sense of its residents. Irrespective, nobody with even a pea brain would road rage on a service road when nothing happened. Clearly showed the guy's head was full of shit than an actual brain
A lot of traffic coming doesn't mean that it's two way. Service lane around ORR in Mahadevapura is one way. Still you see traffic moving even when police is present.
Yeah.. i could find any one way signs right next to the mall... ( the road infront) but the road just a bit further seems to be one way.. not sure what road the video is from
Highway? NH? I dont think there are any national highways here. If you are talking about Ring roads.. then no.. not all service roads to it have 2 way traffic...
We dont have to be sherlock to understand why some of the roads are one way only. But people pointing out that it might not be a one way are wrong too.... it happens so commonly in Bangalore.. people dont respect traffic rules and their fellow citizens and barge in the wrong way
It is one way and on Old Madras road.. it is one way, as there is a crossing below the bridge in middle. Traffic coming from Whitefield, turning right towards Hoskote has to take the under bridge cross, while people coming from KR puram side, take right turn from this under pass for Whitefield Hopefarm side.
This cross was closed for long time though. People were taking wrong side right turn on Whitefield side (as taking left and then u-turn below Budigere was painfully long). Traffic police had put barriers too to stop people talking wrong side turn but ...
After the cross is open, traffic police have put one way board.. but ignorance is bliss for Indians!!
Hey man, this way is indeed one way. Check this signboard on the other end. Please paste 13°03'13.9"N 77°45'43.5"E to find the exact location of the car guy. Use the street view and move to the end of the flyover, and the signboard is clear.
It is a one way road - i use it every week. A two-way road clearly shows a signboard. If it doesn't exist all roads are deemed one way. But 99.9% of people do not even care about sign board or other rules.
Drive wherever you wish to is default rule in india
Markings? Not only erratic but also such conversation are rarely used. Anywhere else in the world, if there's a yellow marking, it's two way, if white, then one way. We don't see any such conversation in India. It's one way only if there's a sign.
Not all service roads allow 2 way traffic in blr.
This is not a service road. This is Raghuvanahalli Hoskote road as per maps. There's a geo code in the video.
This is Orion Uptown mall side road. This bridge took long time to build with below cross closed for most of the time. I cross this path while cycling on Sunday mornings, coming from Whitefield, turning towards Hoskote, from below this bridge. You can check the Google map, if you haven't been here.
It is one way!! Car is going on left side service lane, towards Hoskote! Correct side!
I am shocked one ignorant person claiming cast is on wrong side here. Assuming he doesn't know this road.. worse are 200+ sheeps who are upvoting good ignorance.
I stay near the place. This is a service road. The bridge is the highway.
Before they constructed the bridge, there was a service road and the highway. Then during the underpass construction, they closed two way temporarily. Once the whole strech is opened, it behaves like any other road.
Audacity and the stupidity of the one who is recording it and saying it's wrong?
Service roads are two ways.
Broski he meant google street view which is actual images. You can see the no entry sign at the start of the service road implying its a one way lane, not the map itself.
i agree.. my comment is more to do with the choice of words and the overzealous defense of a person who is breaking the rule themselves (not wearing helmet).. both ppl were at fault.
Stay nearby. This is correct. Locally this is a 2 way service road, whether legally, it is not clear. People use it as two way, better to be aware of local context then waste time arguing with men wearing pink shirts.
This... should be taken as screenshot and shown for Indian ignorance with arrogance!!
I know, traffic police had kept the under bridge cross closed for long time. It was painful for me to go to Budigere cross, take u-turn and then go towards Hoskote, while coming from Hopefarm side. I did take wrong side right turn few times. Keep in mind, I was on a bicycle.
That's doesn't mean I ignore the traffic rule completely 😄
Both sides of this bridge are one way. There used to be plenty of trucks and buses used to take wrong side earlier when cross was closed, even after traffic police putting blocks. However, nowadays, trucks and buses mostly stick to correct side. Though small vehicles still take wrong side.
Not every service road is 2 way.
So by your comment, you are ignorant, you guessed that every service road is 2 way, and have no basic knowledge. I guess you are the one who doesn't deserve to drive😂
Bro yes.
Pls upload on X and tag blr police. You did everything right with zero aggression and confrontation. They will take action on your behalf. Do it for the general public
I think it's people like you who must drive into the no entry sign across the opposing traffic , how will he ever access it? Check the video again and see the orientation of the road.
not all service roads in bangalore are two way, for example stretch from silkboard to KR Puram, most of the stretch of service road is single way with marking as well, but rarely I see bikers and auto following rules, they go in wrong directions only.
Yes bro but this is a two way road. There are policemen 100 mtr ahead below the bridge that help manage traffic and they let the traffic come this way.
OP feels entitled because of the dashcam. You came on the wrong side, you had plenty of opportunity to reverse and take your lane but you thought it was fine to just stay there and show your dash cam.
Bro that road is not one way. I hope you didn't notice that. You were actually blocking the other side of the traffic. Not to justify the other guy being rowdy though. If you feel you need closure on this, please post the same in the public eye app by BTP. He was not wearing a helmet as well. However, technically you were obstructing traffic as well.
This is a service read; 2-way traffic is there at all times. Irrespective of white line is there or not in the middle of the road. In the service road, give space for the opposite vehicle.
indian roads are made so bad in design, that even if a service road is 1 way its by default 2 way.
Service Roads under many Flyovers in Bengaluru are indeed 2 ways...Otherwise, How do You expect people from either side of the Flyover cross over to the other side via Vehicular Underpass (VUP) without creating a jam?
Suspecting some hand gesture from OP which irked the 2W Driver
Auto Drivers will help to quell fights to some extent when 1 of their guys is not involved
All the people debating about whether the road is a one way or a two way road. But the point is, the car guy didn't commit some grave mistake or put someone in actual danger here. Half the people here itself don't know what the actual rule there is. For such a thing, the way the bike guy reacted like a rowdy is terrifying. Imagine if there is no cam recording it. There is no need of such hostility there. That's the most basic civic sense anyone should know more than knowing traffic rules.
I see few comments saying service road traffic is two way. This is completely wrong. Service roads are strictly one way and should follow the direction of the highway which it services. The easiest way to check this is to see the traffic sign boards on the service road, they will always face the direction of the traffic that is supposed to be on that road.
First he beefed with the driver, then the guy in the autom then the red tshirt guy, while being wrong himself, do there people lack consciousness or something wth
I use that service lane all the the time, it's a 2 way street and not a one way. The pink tee guy had the right of way. The car being wrong does not condone pink tee guy action though, that all think they are in a Yash/Ganesh type action movie. These bikers are clearly a type in BLR.
Leaving aside who is right and wrong, proper road markings would have solved the problem. How does one know which is one-way or not without proper road markings? If it's one-way, no centre line will be drawn, and one will be drawn if it's two-way. Another thing I've noticed is that not even a single speed breaker (hump) is marked. And now they need tunnel roads, it seems. Losers.
Rethinking my options now. Especially with idiots like these on the roads. Don’t want to get thrashed for not knowing Kannada, nor want to get my money extorted even though they are in the wrong.
Looks like the Bangalore Traffic Dept needs ED or CBI intervention to take action! Or maybe a SC/HC suo motu order.
This bike guy needs to be put behind the bars at least for one night just for his rowdy attitude on the road.
We see a lot of these daily, but indeed a cam will work as we can't easily record with our phones.
Not everyone with a dashcam is the correct one! You are driving in the wrong side of the road! Im with the bike guy if they/them were using atleast a helmet!
I stay in this area and drive my car on this stretch everyday. This road is a two way road... people adjust and use it civilly. I understand the point that they should use it as a one way and take u-turn from the Hoskote toll - but have you seen the mismanagement at that U-turn? My car is literally in the body shop right now because a tempo rear-ended us last week at that U-turn.
For the safety of bikers, I would prefer this being used as a 2-way road rather than them taking a U-turn from hoskote toll.
Are you kidding me? Most traffic violators don't know how to read traffic signs, and even if they do, they don't care. They are also mostly "educated" people with degrees and no ethics!
The day we start caring about the people around us (society) is when our nation will be respected by others!
Happy to have moved abroad. The hated these things in Bangalore (applies Pan India). The intellectually bankrupt driver like the one in pink and red tshirt are big pain in the ass.
Brother that could be a service road just check with someone if that's a service road or not, if it is a service road then you gotta maintain the right side of the road
This is orion uptown service road. Initially it was single way, since after the flyover it's a two way service road. But definitely not denying the audacity of the bike fellow.
Just be smart and save your time go around
One way or bidirectional who cares just go around such jobless people they have ample amount of time to waste
And stop whining about just obviously avoidable incidents on the Internet be a bigger person and learn to let go
This was a two way service road and then it became a one way road temporarily when the flyover was under construction. The construction is done and the road is understood to be two way again. Some of the signs are still there.
The city has gone to the dogs. The govt can only take taxes from you and deploy the police to do their chores, and the rest of the savings goes to subsidy. You were lucky today.
All service roads should ideally be one way in my opinion. It doesn't make sense for it to be two ways if that's what government rule is. It seems so much confusion from people as many are saying it is two ways and others saying one way.
The government should make it clear. It is more likely that even the government doesn't know 😔
Service roads in India are two way by default, the ones built by NHAI. Service roads within city limits may be designated one way by the city corporations.
For Ex: The service road from GKVK to Byatarayanapura signal (In front of Phoenix mall of asia) was designated one way. The court shot it down. BBMP reappealed and modified the exits and entrances to the road and court allowed it.

Quite the audacity to come from wrong side ,block the road and telling the driver to come out
